How the training service works
Our Secure Coding Training/Workshop is a course aimed at software developers, software architects, security consultants and quality assurance engineers who want to understand how attackers uncover and exploit vulnerabilities in web applications, and what can be done by developers to prevent it.
The course covers a methodology used to assess the security of a web application and gives detailed guidance on secure development, relating to both the design and implementation of web applications.
The course is a mix of presentations and hands-on lab sessions where attendees will practice and experience how application vulnerabilities are detected and exploited by attackers, and how applications can successfully defend against these attacks.
