Course description
There are two types of scanning tools that can be used on a Laravel application: developer code-scanning tools and hacker attack tools. In this course, we talk about what tools you should run to scan your code and configuration for security holes and vectors of attack. Additionally, we discuss other tools that a bad actor might use against your website, so you can learn to use them against yourself first and protect yourself proactively.
