OSWE is OffSec’s advanced web application exam. It’s built around reading source code to find and chain vulnerabilities, a skill that application security teams prize. Our live online bootcamp prepares you for it in UAE time.

How the online batches work
Classes are live and instructor-led, online, and scheduled in UAE time (the UAE is 1 hour 30 minutes behind India). You join from anywhere in the UAE: Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah or elsewhere. Our Dubai office handles UAE enquiries and enrolment. We share the next batch dates and timings when you get in touch.
What you’ll learn
- White-box testing: reading source code to find bugs, not just poking at the front end
- Authentication bypasses and session attacks
- Deserialisation, SQL injection and other paths to remote code execution
- Chaining smaller bugs into a full compromise
- Writing your own exploit scripts in Python
The full module list is on our main OSWE (WEB-300) course page.

Frequently asked questions
Does the fee include the OSWE exam?
No. We’re not an OffSec partner, so you buy the WEB-300 course and exam directly from OffSec at OffSec’s current price. Our AED 3,675 fee is for our coaching.
Do I need to be a developer?
You need to read code comfortably (for example PHP, Java, C# or JavaScript) and write simple Python. You don’t need to be a professional developer.
OSWE or OSWA first?
OSWA (WEB-200) is the black-box, entry-level web exam. If you’re new to web testing, start there; OSWE is the advanced step.
Is VAT included in the price?
No. All our UAE prices exclude 5% UAE VAT, which is added to your invoice.
