🔍 How to Perform Authenticated Scans in OWASP ZAP on Password-Protected Applications
In this video, you'll learn how to conduct an authenticated vulnerability scan using OWASP ZAP on web applications that require password-based login.
We'll walk you through the process of scanning as a logged-in user, gaining access to secure pages and hidden functionality that unauthenticated scans would miss. This enables you to uncover vulnerabilities that only appear once a user is authenticated.
✅ Perform scans behind login-protected areas
✅ Use ZAP to handle user sessions and authentication automatically
✅ Discover hidden risks inside authenticated sections of your app
Perfect for penetration testers, bug bounty hunters, and developers looking to secure the full attack surface of their web applications.
