Vulnerabilities in our own applications can be hard to spot, but we can learn to identify them in an environment designed to train us, so we know what craziness can get us hacked in the real world. The Juice Shop is a “Vulnerable Web App” built by OWASP, with a range of vulnerabilities from the laughably obvious to the frustratingly intricate.
In the workshop we’ll work in teams, with time to explore, learn how to use our tools and see who can spot ways to hack the system. We’ll also have teaching around how to spot and fix specific vulnerabilities, that you can take back to your own applications, improving security from the engineering team upwards.

I joined very late but still managed to get the owasp Juice Shop running and install the testing tool without any issues. The speaker clearly knew a lot about web application security and quickly guided us to some interesting insights with the installed software. It was amazing that we could use our own laptops during the session, and he made a great effort to keep everyone engaged throughout. I really enjoyed it and learned a lot.
For improvement, it would be great if the details of the ZAP tool were a bit easier to see from the back of the room — that’s my only suggestion. Overall, it was a fun and inspiring talk that made me want to keep exploring web security topics further!
