Course Description

Using the SQLMap Tool

The SQLMap tool is an open source penetration testing tool that is used to detect and exploit SQL injection vulnerabilities and the taking over of database servers. SQL, or Structured Query Language, is the standard language used to interact with a database. SQLMap is a tool that is helpful for penetration testers as it has a robust detection engine with various niche features and a wide range of switches. That allows penetration testers to perform database fingerprinting, access data from the database, access the underlying file system and execute commands on the operating system through out-of-band connections.

Why Use the SQLMap Tool?

SQL injection is one of the most common types of cyberattacks. It seems there is always something in the news about data dumps that contain usernames, passwords credit card information, and other sensitive data. When that happens, it’s likely that those dumps are the result of SQL injection attacks. Attackers can gain access to whatever information is included in the database when they are successful in their attacks. That’s why it’s so important to have the knowledge and skills needed to use the SQLMap tool to detect SQL injection vulnerabilities.

The SQLMap tool has a vast number of options, making it easy to test a database. It’s a python-based tool that is used for the detection and exploitation of SQL injection weaknesses. It’s a tool that every penetration tester should know how to use. SQLMap can be used to: * Scan web applications for SQL injection flaws or weaknesses * Exploit SQL injection vulnerabilities * Use tamper scripts to bypass a Web Application Firewall (WAF) * Extract a database and the database user details * Own the underlying OS and run OS level commands.

SQLMap offers full support for the following Database Management Systems (DBMS): * MySQL * Microsoft SQL Server * Microsoft Access * Oracle * SQLite * PostgreSQL * IBM DB2 * Sybase * Firebird * SAP MaxDB * Informix * HSQLDB * H2

It also provides full support for six different SQL injection techniques: error-based, time-based blind, boolean-based blind, out-of-band, stacked queries, and UNION query.

For more information about the SQLMap tool, and to learn to use it, enroll in the How to Use SQLMap tutorial. The course will teach students the basics of SQLMap and how to run the tool. Enrolling in the course is easy, just click on the Register button at the top right corner of this screen to get started.

Success from Our Learners

"Cybrary really helped me get up to speed and acquire a baseline level of technical knowledge. It offers a far more comprehensive approach than just learning from a book. It actually shows you how to apply cybersecurity processes in a hands-on way"

Don Gates

Principal Systems Engineer/SAIC

"Cybrary’s SOC Analyst career path was the difference maker, and was instrumental in me landing my new job. I was able to show the employer that I had the right knowledge and the hands-on skills to execute the role."

Cory

Cybersecurity analyst/

"I was able to earn my CISSP certification within 60 days of signing up for Cybrary Insider Pro and got hired as a Security Analyst conducting security assessments and penetration testing within 120 days. This certainly wouldn’t have been possible without the support of the Cybrary mentor community."

"I was able to earn both my Security+ and CySA+ in two months. I give all the credit to Cybrary. I’m also proud to announce I recently accepted a job as a Cyber Systems Engineer at BDO... I always try to debunk the idea that you can't get a job without experience or a degree."

Casey

Cyber Systems Engineer/BDO

"Cybrary has helped me improve my hands-on skills and pass my toughest certification exams, enabling me to achieve 13 advanced certifications and successfully launch my own business. I love the practice tests for certification exams, especially, and appreciate the wide-ranging training options that let me find the best fit for my goals"
