WebGoat VS wrongsecrets

WebGoat and Juice Shop are two "deliberately insecure" applications containing hundreds of security vulnerabilities for you to find and exploit, including SQL injections. Both projects provide extensive educational material to guide you.

Click Save and then Run. If your codebase doesn’t have an OWASP critical bug, the pipeline should execute successfully. To enforce a fail on this OWASP scan, use a codebase with known vulnerabilities like WebGoat and you’ll see the OWASP scanner in action.

There's also a bunch of intentionally vulnerable Webapps and VMs aimed at demonstrating potential footholds and common exploits leading to owning of the host including but not limited to: bWAPP, Damn Vulnerable Web App, WebGoat, Metasploitable 3, Mutillidae, Juice Shop

Bro, i recommend you to create your own labs using vmware or virtualbox. There are so many VM images out there that was created for educational purposes. For example https://www.vulnhub.com/ has multiple VM images. You can test your skill by downloading and importing to your Virtual platform. Also, take consider to solve all problems in WebGoat and DVWA images.

I highly recommend studying for more than just the cert. Get comfortable with cybersecurity itself. My biggest recommendation would be WebGoat. This also works great alongside studying for the sec+. https://owasp.org/www-project-webgoat/ Completely free and intentionally built to be insecure and help you learn and apply security concepts and use security tools. Also try https://tryhackme.com/ -> Both free.

I'm using latest version which you can find at https://github.com/WebGoat/WebGoat/releases/tag/v2023.4

TL:DR OWASP WrongSecrets is a great project that gamified app that teaches how not to store secrets. The project was created from real examples that Jeroen and others came across in their work as security engineers (Or mistakes they have made) The App uses a number of different technologies such as docker to show common ways secrets are leaked. The challenges get more difficult as you go and give hints and have comments why this is a bad practice. https://github.com/commjoen/wrongsecrets

Hi! Some friends and I are making a p0wnable app around secrets management! Do you want to give a very early version a shot? Check it out over here. And let us know what you think!
