<p><b>Lesson Plan Title:</b> How to Bypass Fail Open Authentication </p>
</div>
<p><b>Concept / Topic To Teach:</b> </p>
<!-- Start Instructions -->
This lesson presents the basics for understanding the "fail open" condition regarding authentication. The security term, &#8220;fail open&#8221; describes a behavior of a verification mechanism. This is when an error (i.e. unexpected exception) occurs during a verification method causing that method to evaluate to true. This is especially dangerous during login. <br>
<!-- Stop Instructions -->
<p><b>General Goal(s):</b> </p>
The user should be able to bypass the authentication check.
