Building secure networked applications can be challenging, even for developers who have previously worked with cryptographic building blocks like encryption and digital signatures. To help participants grasp the role and application of these cryptographic primitives, this course first establishes a strong foundation on the core requirements of secure communication—such as secure acknowledgement, integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, and anonymity. It also highlights common issues that can compromise these requirements and presents practical real-world solutions.

Since cryptography is a critical component of network security, the course covers essential cryptographic algorithms, including symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement protocols. Rather than focusing on complex mathematical theories, these concepts are explored from a developer's perspective, featuring typical use-case examples and practical considerations related to cryptographic implementation, such as Public Key Infrastructures (PKI). The course also introduces security protocols used in various areas of secure communication, providing an in-depth look at widely adopted protocol families like IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

Common cryptographic vulnerabilities are discussed, covering both specific algorithms and protocols. This includes attacks such as BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding Oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and RSA timing attacks. For each vulnerability, the practical implications and potential consequences are explained, avoiding deep mathematical details to maintain focus on practical understanding.

Finally, given that XML technology is central to data exchange in networked applications, the course addresses XML security. This includes the use of XML within web services and SOAP messages, along with protective measures like XML Signature and XML Encryption. Additionally, it covers weaknesses in these protection mechanisms and XML-specific security issues, such as XML injection, XML External Entity (XXE) attacks, XML bombs, and XPath injection.

Developers, Professionals

Developing secure C and C++ applications demands stringent measures against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and input validation circumvention. This course explores common vulnerability patterns such as buffer overflows, use-after-free errors, integer overflows, and type confusion. Participants will implement secure coding standards, utilize static analysis tools, and apply defensive programming strategies to mitigate weaknesses, enforce input sanitization, and produce robust software capable of withstanding cyber threats.

Even seasoned Java developers often do not fully master the diverse security services provided by Java, nor are they always conscious of the various vulnerabilities pertinent to web applications developed in Java.

Aside from introducing the security components of Standard Java Edition, this course addresses security concerns related to Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and web services. The discussion of specific services builds upon the foundations of cryptography and secure communication. A range of exercises focuses on declarative and programmatic security techniques within JEE, while both transport-layer and end-to-end security for web services are explored. The application of all these components is illustrated through practical exercises, allowing participants to experiment with the discussed APIs and tools firsthand.

The course also examines and explains the most common and severe programming flaws associated with the Java language and platform, as well as web-related vulnerabilities. Beyond the 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 straightforward exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and potential mitigation techniques.
