Web applications serve as the primary interface between organizations and their users, making them attractive targets for attackers. The OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) Foundation estimates that over 90% of attacks on web applications target known vulnerabilities that could have been prevented with proper security testing[1]. Understanding how to systematically identify and remediate these vulnerabilities is essential for developers, security engineers, and penetration testers. This comprehensive guide explores web application security testing through the lens of OWASP methodologies, covering everything from reconnaissance to exploitation and remediation.
