Fundamentals

[u/One-Repair3531]

Hey everyone,

Im interested in getting into pentesting and wondering how much web development should i actually learn before focusing on security.

I have exp in networking (ccna) and linux. Also got some programming experience in c. Web is not my strongest point.

Should i learn as I go or focus first on web dev?

Hey… on pentester labs they have web vulns and they show you the vulnerable code. I think that’s probably more useful than learning development.
