Web Hacking

Here's a great way to practice web hacking or test any new tools regarding sql injection, brute forcing, file inclusion etc...
First you need to set up your own local server with XAMPP.
And then you need to copy the DVWA folder in the directory named"htdocs" inside the root folder.
By default its c:\xampp\htdocs

Done....Now all you have to do is open your web browser and go to address 127.0.0.1/dvwa
If it asks for any user name and password then the default username is "admin" and the password is "password".

Download xampp here >>> xampp-win32
Download DWVA here >>> DVWA-1.0.7.zip
