Meet Alex, Your Learning Companion

Alex started just like you, curious about security but overwhelmed by where to begin. She's shipped code with embarrassing vulnerabilities and stayed up late debugging issues she accidentally introduced.

Every mistake taught her something valuable. When Alex fails in these modules, you'll understand why. Her journey becomes your shortcut.

Story-drivenRelatable mistakes

Visual Diagrams

Prerequisites

This course assumes you understand SSRF fundamentals. You should know:

  • - The difference between basic SSRF and blind SSRF
  • - How web applications make server-side HTTP requests
  • - Basic cloud infrastructure concepts (EC2, metadata services)
  • - HTTP request/response fundamentals
