Secure Programming

“Secure programming” means developing the software without vulnerabilities, with built-in security through authentication and encryption. You pay attention to safety as early as possible, preferably already during the design of the application.

After following this course:

You will have knowledge of safe software development.
You will have insight into the most common vulnerabilities.
You will have knowledge of how to prevent vulnerabilities.
You will have insight into the changed role of the agile developer compared to a traditional environment.

Deliver secure software together

More and more organizations are faced with some form of cyber crime. Here too, “prevention is better than cure” and research shows that making software safely is ultimately cheaper than retrofitting it. This predominantly technical training aims to help you understand in theory and practice what threats exist, learn the features of reliable software and what you can do to develop it safely. This training combines theory and practical skills training.
