Implementing a secure networked application can be challenging, even for developers who have prior experience with cryptographic building blocks such as encryption and digital signatures. To help 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: integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, anonymity, and secure acknowledgment. It also addresses common threats that undermine these requirements alongside real-world solutions.

Given that cryptography is a critical aspect of network security, the most important algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement are discussed. Rather than delving into complex mathematical theories, these concepts are presented from a developer's perspective, highlighting typical use-case examples and practical considerations such as public key infrastructures (PKI). Additionally, security protocols used in secure communication are introduced, with an in-depth look at widely-used protocol families like IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

Common cryptographic vulnerabilities are explored, covering both specific algorithms and protocols. Examples include BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding Oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and RSA timing attacks. For each issue, the practical implications and potential consequences are outlined without requiring deep mathematical expertise.

Finally, since XML technology is central to data exchange in networked applications, its security aspects are thoroughly described. This includes using XML within web services and SOAP messages, along with protection mechanisms like XML Signature and XML Encryption. The discussion also covers weaknesses in these protections and XML-specific security issues such as XML injection, XML external entity (XXE) attacks, XML bombs, and XPath injection.

Developing robust C and C++ code demands strict protection against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and input validation failures. This course analyzes common vulnerability patterns such as buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, integer overflows, and type confusion issues. Participants will utilize secure coding standards, static analysis tools, and defensive programming strategies to remove vulnerabilities, ensure proper input sanitization, and build software that is resilient against cyber threats.

Even seasoned Java developers do not necessarily master the full range of security services provided by Java, nor are they always aware of the various vulnerabilities that can affect web applications built with Java.

In addition to introducing the security components of the Standard Java Edition, this course addresses security concerns within Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and web services. The discussion of specific services begins with the fundamentals of cryptography and secure communication. A variety of exercises cover both declarative and programmatic security techniques in JEE, while the course examines transport-layer and end-to-end security for web services. Through several practical exercises, participants gain hands-on experience with the discussed APIs and tools.

The course also reviews and explains common and severe programming flaws in the Java language and platform, as well as web-related vulnerabilities. Beyond typical errors made by Java developers, the covered security vulnerabilities include both language-specific issues and problems arising from the runtime environment. All vulnerabilities and their corresponding attacks are demonstrated through easy-to-understand exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and possible mitigation techniques.

Today, various programming languages can be used to compile code for the .NET and ASP.NET frameworks. This environment offers robust tools for security development; however, developers must understand how to apply architecture-level and coding-level techniques to implement desired security features, prevent vulnerabilities, or mitigate their impact.

This course aims to teach developers, through extensive hands-on exercises, how to prevent untrusted code from executing privileged actions, protect resources via strong authentication and authorization, manage remote procedure calls, handle sessions, and implement various functionality patterns.

The course introduces vulnerabilities by highlighting common programming mistakes made when using .NET. The discussion on ASP.NET vulnerabilities covers various environmental settings and their effects. Furthermore, ASP.NET-specific vulnerabilities address general web application security challenges as well as specialized issues, such as ViewState attacks and string termination attacks.
