Programming Foundations: Secure Coding

This course is an introduction to secure development practices related to various aspects of software development. Security architect Frank Moley introduces you to risk analysis, including proactive risk identifications. Frank then looks at the most common types of vulnerabilities that plague applications today, including client/server issues, with a heavy focus on web-based and embedded and IoT focused development. The course then gets into a primer of cryptography, the role it plays in security, and its proper use by looking at the vulnerabilities around its misuse. Frank finishes the course by looking at strategies for each phase of the software development lifecycle to build a secure application development lifecycle while considering the modern development practices.
