Secure Software Coding
ONLINE COURSES - CERTIFICATES OF ACHIEVEMENT
Course Description:
Secure coding is becoming increasingly important due to various emerging threats. Although many of the existing secure coding best practices are programming language and domain‐specific, there are also language and domain‐neutral knowledge to be obtained by software developers. This course focuses on this attainment of comprehensive but practical secure coding knowledge. By exposing the audience tall the major secure coding concepts and tools available today, the primary goal of this course is to quickly improve the attendees’ overall security quality of coding practices and to prepare for learning more language and application‐specific secure coding techniques.
