Web application security assessment

Capstone project: a practical security assessment of an online restaurant management web application, with a re-scan after code fixes.

BuiltAcademic project

Context & problem

Small web applications often go live with common vulnerabilities that a structured assessment would catch.

Why it mattered

It applied the diploma's theory to a realistic application, including verifying that fixes actually worked.

My role

Carried out the assessment and remediation for the capstone (CYB 106).
