Looking to identify web application security gaps through emulated, real-world attacks? You've come to the right place! On this site I share some modern, practical, and easy-to-implement tips for web pentesting.
These bite-sized tips include explanations, screen shots, code, and step-by-step instructions.
Jake is an Offensive Security Consultant at Echelon Risk + Cyber where he is experienced in both building and breaking web applications. He graduated from Grove City College after studying Computer Information Systems and has worked in the past with several Pittsburgh-based companies like Carnegie Mellon’s Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT).
Jake has extensive experience with bug bounties and the Bugcrowd platform, totaling over 70 discovered vulnerabilities in Fortune 500 companies in the banking, retail, and government industries. He was featured twice on local Pittsburgh news channels, once for developing a smart alarm clock app and again for a web application that helped people decide where to eat during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the last several years Jake has cofounded FTW Sites, a company that provides websites for Chick-fil-A franchises across the country. He currently has 118 Chick-fil-A clients, and they are continuing to grow at a rapid pace. He believes the most satisfying part of running the company is the free Chick-fil-A sandwiches.
This website was created to store the Web App Hacking posts I made on LinkedIn throughout the year of 2022. Each week I posted a new tip of something I learned in the Offensive Security field. Hope you enjoy!
