Securing Web @ZAP Day-2

On the second day of workshop we had installed the ZAP software and taught them  about the User Interface of ZAP software. After Installing ZAP  we have taken a session about generating a Dynamic SSL certificate and installing on Firefox browser. This SSL certificate is installed on browser for testing the websites using the browser plugin tool as a manual testing of vulnerabilities.

Later I explained them about the modes of ZAP tool which are used for finding out the vulnerabilities i.e Safe mode, Protected Mode, Standard Mode and Attack Mode.

I have also explained about many features of  ZAP tool like Intercepting, Fizzing, Spiders and scanners.
