About this course

Vulnerabilities can occur at any stage of software development, making it critical for developers to write secure code and maintain a secured development environment and the platform it runs on. In this course, you will learn to identify security vulnerabilities in applications and implement secure code practices to prevent events like data breaches and leaks which can significantly impact an organization’s reputation and financial condition. This course provides a comprehensive overview of security best practices that developers should follow when developing applications. You’ll gain extensive knowledge on various practices, concepts, and processes for maintaining a secure environment, including DevSecOps practices that automate security integration across the software development lifecycle (SDLC), Static Application Security Testing (SAST) for identifying security flaws, Dynamic Analysis, and Dynamic Testing, and creating a Secure Development Environment, an ongoing process for securing a network, computing resources, and storage devices both on-premise and in the cloud. This course familiarizes you with the top Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) application security risks such as broken access controls and SQL injections and teaches you how to prevent and mitigate these threats. This course includes multiple hands-on labs to develop and demonstrate your skills and knowledge for maintaining a secure development environment.
