DVWA SETUP

I have downloaded DVWA file and using the instructions in the video. I have installed it.

Using the Ifconfig command we can get the Ip address of the DVWA VM

We can use the address and enter it into the browser of the Kali Linux which is up and running.

Once you enter the address , the home page of the DVMA is opened

Enter the User name as admin

Enter the Password as password

I have started exploring options such as SQL Injection.

Go to Setup ------> Create/ Reset Database

I have changed the DVWA Security from High to Low

DVWA Security changed to Low

We can enable PHPIDS, Simulate an attack and View IDS Log
