Secure Developer Java (Inc OWASP) Training Course

Building a secure networked application can be challenging, even for developers who have prior experience with cryptographic building blocks like encryption and digital signatures. To ensure participants grasp the role and application of these cryptographic primitives, the course begins by establishing a solid foundation on the core requirements of secure communication: secure acknowledgment, integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, and anonymity. It also addresses common threats that compromise these requirements along with practical solutions.

As cryptography is central to network security, the course covers essential algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement. Rather than focusing on deep mathematical theory, these topics are explored from a developer's perspective, featuring typical use-case examples and practical considerations such as public key infrastructures (PKI). The course also introduces security protocols used in secure communication, with detailed discussions on widely adopted protocol families like IPsec and SSL/TLS.

Common cryptographic vulnerabilities are examined, focusing on specific algorithms and protocols. Topics include BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding Oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and similar threats, as well as RSA timing attacks. For each issue, practical implications and potential consequences are described without delving into complex mathematical details.

Finally, given that XML technology is fundamental for data exchange in networked applications, the course covers XML security aspects. This includes the use of XML in web services and SOAP messages, along with protective measures such as XML Signature and XML Encryption. It also addresses weaknesses in these protections and XML-specific vulnerabilities like XML injection, XML External Entity (XXE) attacks, XML bombs, and XPath injection.

Developers, Professionals

Developing secure C and C++ applications demands rigorous protection against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and input validation bypasses. This program investigates vulnerability patterns such as buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, integer overflows, and type confusion. Participants will apply secure coding guidelines, static analysis tools, and defensive programming techniques to eliminate weaknesses, enforce input sanitization, and deliver hardened software resilient against cyberattacks.

Even seasoned Java developers often do not fully master the full spectrum of security services provided by Java, nor are they always aware of the diverse vulnerabilities that impact web applications built with Java.

In addition to introducing the security components of Standard Java Edition, this course addresses the security challenges associated with Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and web services. The discussion begins with the foundational principles of cryptography and secure communication before diving into specific services. Through a series of exercises, participants explore both declarative and programmatic security techniques within JEE, as well as transport-layer and end-to-end security for web services. The practical application of these components is demonstrated through hands-on exercises, allowing participants to experiment with the relevant APIs and tools firsthand.

The course also examines and explains the most common and critical programming flaws in the Java language and platform, alongside web-related vulnerabilities. Beyond typical errors made by Java developers, the covered security vulnerabilities encompass both language-specific issues and problems arising from the runtime environment. All identified vulnerabilities and their corresponding attacks are illustrated through accessible exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and effective mitigation strategies.

Participants attending this course will

• Grasp the fundamental concepts of security, IT security, and secure coding.
• Learn about web vulnerabilities extending beyond the OWASP Top Ten and discover how to prevent them.
