I posted a question to Quora about hackthissite.org 's benefits and reality. I


got well defined answer that I want to share with you. Here is the question
and the answer.

Question: Do you think hackthissite.org is a good tool to master web hack‐


ing?

Answer: Thanks to Frank Smith

The missions on that website are pretty realistic in terms of real world hack‐
ing. But if you finish all the missions you will have only scratched the surface
of "hacking". There are literally dozens** of site that will provide you similar
missions but they all lack one thing, fundamentals. Finishing all the chal‐
lenges is great but it won't teach you ABCs of security. If you really want to
understand Web Application security I recommend Web Application Hackers
Handbook. This books is the single best source of learning security for Web
Applications.

Since this book only focuses on WebApplications, I would recommend Counter


Hack Reloaded as a good counterpart. Its a bit dated (2006) but it goes in
great details about fundamentals and covers a huge ground.

people who come across this post can alias ipython="ipython.exe"

time consuming for you to use descriptive
