bWAPP, or a buggy web application, is a deliberately insecure web application.
bWAPP helps security enthusiasts, developers and students to discover and to prevent web vulnerabilities. bWAPP prepares to conduct successful penetration testing and ethical hacking projects.
What makes bWAPP so unique? Well, it has over 60 web bugs! It covers all major known web vulnerabilities, including all risks from the OWASP Top 10 project.
bWAPP is a PHP application that uses a MySQL database. It can be hosted on Linux and Windows using Apache/IIS and MySQL. It can be installed with WAMP or XAMPP.
Another possibility is to download bee-box, a custom VM pre-installed with bWAPP.
This project is part of the ITSEC GAMES project. ITSEC GAMES are a fun approach to IT security education. IT security, ethical hacking, training and fun... all mixed together.
