IT Professional Certifications (ISC)2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP)
Building security controls within software implementation and coding is vital for end-product software security. In this course, you'll learn about declarative versus programmatic security, how to use Open Web Application Security Project or OWASP and Common Weakness Enumeration or CWE as great security sources, and some defense coding practices and controls such as configuration, error handling, and session management. This course also covers some essential secure coding techniques such as versioning, peer-based code reviews, code analysis, and anti-tampering techniques. This course is one of a series in the learning path that covers the objectives for the Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) exam.
