unable to access The web application hackers handbook link

Rohit | Last updated: Sep 22, 2024 03:15AM UTC

hello everyone, I am reading and practicing from the portswigger academies The web application Hackers handbook. If you are a old user of portswigger academy you know that in early time the url to access this was like "http://mdsec.net/" so how can I access that particular labs which are given in book, some urls are:- http://mdsec.net/shop/92/ http://mdsec.net/auth/472/ by clicking this url the portswigger home page is showing with Web Application Hacker's Handbook page. if anyone know how to access that labs, please reply me. :)

Hi Rohit, The labs referenced in the book did not actually belong to Portswigger - they were maintained and run by MDSec and are now no longer available. We would see the Web Academy as the spiritual successor to these labs, hence the reason for the redirection.
