Secure Coding
Practices and techniques for writing code that is secure and resilient against vulnerabilities.
Secure coding is the practice of writing software in a way that protects against security vulnerabilities and attacks. This cluster teaches learners how to write code that is resilient to common security threats such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and buffer overflows. By mastering secure coding, professionals can reduce the risk of security breaches and protect their applications and data from malicious attacks.
This cluster is ideal for software developers, security engineers, and quality assurance professionals. Practical outcomes include improved security practices, reduced vulnerabilities in software, and enhanced ability to implement security measures throughout the development lifecycle.
Learners will explore secure coding standards, threat modeling, and defensive programming techniques. Tools like static code analyzers, vulnerability scanners, and security testing frameworks will be covered to help learners implement secure coding practices effectively.
