Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) 2019: Security Vulnerabilities

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Explore how to identify and assess security vulnerabilities in this 20-video course, in which you will encounter essential secure coding techniques such as versioning, peer-based code reviews, code analysis, and anti-tampering techniques. First, become familiar with malicious practices and the threats outlined in the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10 list and the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) list of software weaknesses. You will soon be able to differentiate between CWE and Common Vulnerabilities and Exposure (CVE) lists. Next, learn to describe the characteristics of injection attacks, before watching demonstrations of input validation failures such as buffer overflows, canonical form, missing defense functions, and general programming failures. You will examine how to analyze reuse code for security vulnerabilities, identify malicious code, securely reuse third-party code, and securely integrate components. Finally, learners will hear discussions of defensive coding, side channels, social engineering attacks, source code and versioning. The course prepares learners for the (ISC)2 CSSLP: Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional certification exam.
