Oh snap, I'm blowing up!

Hi everyone, this is my course (sort of). If you have any questions, leave them below and I'll do my best to answer.

ps. I'm hosting the course at my own domain at http://pentest.cryptocity.net

You're getting increasingly famous, Dan.

Seriously, the referrer's to my page are blowing up. Hopefully a few will stick and be active participants in adding to the site.

This looks very interesting - I will have to check it out when I have more time. I was also looking over the Certificate/Master's programs - did I miss something or is there really no coursework on database security?

Update: sorry, I misunderstood the question at first.

We cover SQL injection and other attacks against databases in Web Hacking. Student's are free to choose a final project related to database security if that's their thing and a few have in the past.

If you have specific suggestions regarding content I should add, let me know and I'll see what I can come up with.

Happy to point out that our own Stephen Ridley worked on the reversing segment of this class, and that Dino Dai Zovi is Matasano emeritus, not that I'd ever think to take any credit for his success, oh no, I'm just happy to name drop.
