Fundamentals of Secure Software Development Training

From proactive requirements to coding and testing, this secure software development training course covers the best practices any software developer needs to avoid opening up their users, customers and organization to attack at the application layer. We teach only constantly updated best practices, and our experts answer your questions live in class. Even with good information security policy and staff, the reality is that software developers are often underserved when it comes to security strategy. If their applications get built without attention to good software security practices, risk gets passed downstream and by the time an incident occurs it’s too late to be proactive. To mitigate these risks, attend this secure programming training course and return to work ready to build higher quality, more robustly protected applications. There are no formal prerequisites for this course.
