Why this program matters

  • Companies that neglect security testing expose themselves to data breaches whose average cost exceeds 4 million euros according to recent studies.

  • Developers without these skills see their career progression stalled amid rising demand for security expertise.

  • Production delays and emergency fixes directly hit project profitability.

  • Acting now avoids these losses and secures the company's applications for the long term.

Program

Module 1Topic: Introduction to Security Testing (OWASP, browsers, initial audits)

Participants discover the basics of security testing through hands-on demonstrations. They explore OWASP principles, use browser extensions, and perform an initial manual audit on a provided application. Practical exercises help identify simple vulnerabilities while understanding their business impact. The day ends with a group deliverable summarizing initial observations.

Module 2Topic: Security Testing for Authentication (tools, scenarios, reporting)

This day focuses on authentication and session mechanisms. Learners configure tools such as Burp Suite Community, create test scenarios, and execute controlled attacks. Real-world business cases illustrate the risks. Each participant produces an analysis report and presents it to the group for collective validation.

Module 3Topic: Security Testing for APIs and Data (Postman, injections, validation)

Trainees learn to test REST APIs using Postman and automated scripts. They detect SQL and XSS injections, validate inputs, and analyze responses. Exercises based on real applications reinforce learning. The day's final deliverable is a customized API test checklist tailored to their professional context.

Module 4Topic: Security Testing Synthesis and Action Plan (tools, reporting, integration)

The final day consolidates acquired skills. Participants build a complete test plan, integrate open-source tools, and draft a professional report. Simulated scenarios replicate a real enterprise assignment. Each learner leaves with a personal deliverable ready for use in their organization.

Evaluation method

  • Knowledge validation quizzes at the end of each day
  • Practical exercises with an audit report
  • Oral presentation of the final test plan

Learning method

  • Live demonstrations on vulnerable applications
  • Guided practical exercises in pairs
  • Real-world use cases drawn from client projects
  • Personalized feedback on deliverables

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
