In the "How the Web Works" module from TryHackMe, I learned about the intricacies of DNS, HTTP, and website creation. The module provides a detailed explanation of how DNS functions and how it aids in accessing internet services. It also delves into the workings of the HTTP protocol and how it facilitates the request for content from a web server. In addition it also explains the difference between HTTP and HTTPS protocols, and their significance in securing web communication .
Lastly, the module emphasizes how web servers work and the significance of all the individual components of the web working together harmoniously to provide access to websites. Understanding how websites are created is essential when it comes to exploiting them, and this module offers valuable insights into this process on a high level of course. I would recommend it for those wishing to get into Web Application Pentesting as it servers as a refresher of knowledge and comes with some nice visualizations.
