Application Security & Secure Coding (AppSec)
Bridge the divide between software engineering and security. Deep-dive into OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, secure code review, and DevSecOps pipelines.
Course Overview
Designed for software engineers and security practitioners who want to eliminate vulnerabilities at the source code level. You will analyze vulnerable applications, execute exploit payloads in safe labs, and write production fixes that withstand security audits.
