This paper explores the integration of challenge-based tasks in the education of cybersecurity and software engineers for the testing of the security of web applications. It provides an overview of security education and web application security, highlights the importance of challenge-based tasks, and details their implementation in the curricula. Specific tasks and their solutions are presented, along with future plans for improving these educational methods. The study emphasizes the critical role of hands-on, practical approaches in bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
