Ever wanted to see an attack get caught the moment it happens, instead of just reading about it after the fact? That's what this walkthrough is about.

OWASP Juice Shop is intentionally broken — SQL injection, XSS, broken access control, and a dozen other flaws are baked into its code on purpose, making it one of the best sandboxes for learning how real attacks actually work. But knowing an app is vulnerable is only half the story: the real skill is watching an attack happen and catching it as it unfolds. That's where SecureNow comes in.

In this walkthrough, I set up Juice Shop from scratch, then instrumented it with SecureNow's SDK, CLI, and cloud dashboard to monitor traffic in real time and flag malicious behavior — SQL injection attempts, brute-force logins, account enumeration — the moment it happens. Here's exactly how I did it.

What Is OWASP Juice Shop?

OWASP Juice Shop is a deliberately vulnerable web application, developed and maintained by OWASP, used worldwide for learning cybersecurity. It simulates an e-commerce site that sells fruit juices — complete with account creation, product search, reviews, and a chatbot.
