Sector: Manufacturing
Date: 21 May 2025
Time: 9:00 to 13:30 CEST
Writing secure web applications can be challenging for various reasons, from dealing with legacy technologies and underdocumented third-party components to tight deadlines and code maintainability. But what if attackers are actively trying to breach your code right now? How vulnerable is your system to these threats?
This course will change the way you look at your code by teaching you to identify common weaknesses and their potential consequences, which hackers can exploit to attack your system. More importantly, you’ll learn best practices to protect yourself and your applications.
The course covers typical web vulnerabilities, focusing on how they impact applications across the entire stack—starting from the base environment to modern AJAX and HTML5-based frontends. The course also delves into security concerns specific to different platforms and highlights common programming mistakes to avoid. Through live practical exercises, you will gain hands-on experience that will keep you engaged while learning to write more secure code.
Writing secure code gives you a distinct advantage over your competitors and helps protect against cybercrime. The course covers the first two issues of the OWASP Top 10: Security misconfiguration, broken access control and cryptographic failures, providing you with the knowledge to safeguard your web applications effectively.
