Secure Coding Fundamentals with Veracode

Protecting applications from cyber threats is a critical skill for any developer today. This course will transform you from a developer unfamiliar with security risks into one capable of integrating security practices throughout the development lifecycle, ensuring the applications you build are robust and resistant to common attacks. What you'll learn: Understand core secure coding principles and common software vulnerabilities like the OWASP Top 10. Apply secure design patterns and practices throughout the software development lifecycle. Practice identifying and mitigating security flaws in code through practical examples. Integrate automated static analysis (SAST) tools like Veracode into your development process. Implement fundamental input validation, authentication, and authorization mechanisms. Learn to address basic software supply chain security concerns. The course begins with foundational security concepts and common attack vectors, then progresses to practical secure coding techniques. You'll explore how to leverage tools like Veracode for automated analysis and conclude with strategies for integrating security into the entire development process. This course is designed for beginner developers, aspiring software engineers, and anyone looking to understand and implement secure coding practices. No prior cybersecurity or secure development experience is required. Start building more secure software today.
