Learn to Identify and Eliminate Vulnerabilities in APIs

In this course, you’ll gain hands-on experience in manual and automated API testing using tools like Postman, Burp Suite, and OWASP ZAP. You’ll learn how to detect vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them and understand the best practices for API authentication, encryption, and data validation. Whether you’re a developer or a cybersecurity enthusiast, this program equips you to build and secure APIs that stand the test of modern cyber threats.
