APIs, servers, inputs, and code injection attacks to reveal
vulnerabilities. In a well-written, highly-detailed research
paper, discuss the following:
What is penetration testing
Testing Stages
Testing Methods
Testing, web applications and firewalls
Your paper should meet the following requirements:
Be approximately four to six pages in length, not including the

Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an
introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a
conclusion.
Support your answers with the readings from the course and at
least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions,
claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC
Library is a great place to find resources.
Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using
