Vulnerability Assessment & Mitigation

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Explore the domain of security assessment, design, and mitigation for web-based, mobile, and embedded systems. This course will start by examining common web-based attacks, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery (CSRF), carjacking, clickjacking, and cookie exploits. Next, you will learn how to evaluate general strategies to mitigate vulnerability. The course then moves on to mitigation strategies fo rmobiles, such as containerization, sandboxes, wrappers, secure encrypted enclaves, TPM, and tokenization. You will then study enterprise mobility management methods, privacy concerns, and security issues. Other topics include how to assess vulnerabilities and common threats for embedded devices; and how to walk through methods to reduce embedded device vulnerability. Finally, as a review exercise, you will describe how to assess and mitigate systems vulnerabilities.
