Acquire an understanding of Web Application Architecture, essential web technologies, and the core principles of Web Application Security, including the OWASP Top 10.

Cultivate an ethical mindset, adhere to industry standards and legal frameworks, and gain insights into building a successful career in Bug Bounty Hunting.
System Requirements
The ability to run 2-3 VMs on a local machine using one of the following up-to-date operating systems:
- Ubuntu Linux
- ParrotOS
- Windows 11
Minimum Requirements:
- CPU Cores: 4

- Hard Drive Space: 256GB
Recommended Requirements:
- CPU Cores: 6+
- RAM: 16GB+
