Description
Security isn’t just about tools and vulnerabilities.
Security is a very human field, born from the idea that everything has value, and some people will go to great lengths to acquire that value for themselves. We are vulnerable in every aspect of our lives. Despite this, we have developed ways to understand, respond to, and manage these risks – allowing us to live, work and play without fear.
Application security (and secure development) is all about understanding our systems' risks and how we can protect our people, data, and systems.
In this course, we will examine some of the key concepts that underpin security and why they matter when it comes to protecting our systems and applications.
We will look at:
➤ Understanding and calculating security risk and its impact on our people, data and systems.
➤ Identifying the groups and individuals that threaten our security, what drives them and how we can use this information to plan our defenses.
➤ The challenges with defending applications and organizations and the steps you can take to become a security champion.
This course is an essential foundation for roles in the software team and will help engineers of all levels understand and apply key application security concepts.
