The GIAC GWAPT exam, officially titled GIAC Web Application Penetration Tester GWAPT, is the required test for earning the GIAC Web Application Penetration Tester certification, a credential at the Advanced level. Passing it validates the skills GIAC expects from certified professionals, and it can also support progress toward related credentials such as GIAC Penetration Tester (GPEN), GIAC Exploit Researcher and Advanced Penetration Tester (GXPN).

The GWAPT exam includes 82 - 115 questions, and you have 180 minutes to complete it. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count so you know the pace you need to hold, and practice flagging time-consuming items for review instead of stalling on a single question. Timed sessions in the Lead2Passed test engine are the easiest way to build that rhythm before it counts.

You need 71% to pass the GWAPT exam, and the official registration fee is $2,499 USD. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying that fee in full again for a retake, so avoid booking your seat on a hunch. Work through the Lead2Passed practice test until your scores sit comfortably above the passing requirement before you schedule the exam.

GIAC asks candidates to meet the following requirement before registering: No mandatory prerequisites; relevant work experience or completion of SANS SEC542 training highly recommended. Exam policies do change, so confirm the latest details on the official exam page at https://www.giac.org/certifications/web-application-penetration-tester-gwapt before you book.
