Developing a secure networked application can be challenging, even for developers who are already familiar with various cryptographic building blocks such as encryption and digital signatures. To help participants grasp the role and application of these cryptographic primitives, the course first establishes a solid foundation regarding the main requirements of secure communication—namely, secure acknowledgment, integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, and anonymity. It also addresses the typical problems that can compromise these requirements, alongside real-world solutions.

Since cryptography is a critical aspect of network security, the course discusses the most important cryptographic algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement. Rather than focusing on an in-depth mathematical background, these topics are explored from a developer's perspective, illustrating typical use-case examples and practical considerations related to crypto usage, such as public key infrastructures. The course also introduces security protocols used in various areas of secure communication, with an in-depth discussion on widely-used protocol families such as IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

Typical cryptographic vulnerabilities are discussed, both in relation to specific crypto algorithms and cryptographic protocols. Examples include BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and similar issues, as well as the RSA timing attack. For each problem, the practical considerations and potential consequences are described, without delving into deep mathematical details.

Finally, since XML technology is central to data exchange for networked applications, the course covers the security aspects of XML. This includes the usage of XML within web services and SOAP messages, alongside protection measures such as XML signature and XML encryption. The course also addresses weaknesses in these protection measures and XML-specific security issues, such as XML injection, XML external entity (XXE) attacks, XML bombs, and XPath injection.

Developing secure C and C++ applications demands robust defenses against malicious exploitation, memory corruption, and input validation bypasses. 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, leverage static analysis tools, and adopt defensive programming practices to mitigate weaknesses, ensure proper input sanitization, and build software that is resilient against cyber threats.

Even seasoned Java developers do not always fully grasp the full spectrum of security services provided by Java, nor are they always cognizant of the diverse vulnerabilities pertinent to web applications built with Java.

Beyond introducing the security components of Standard Java Edition, this course addresses security concerns within Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and web services. The discussion of specific services begins with the fundamental principles of cryptography and secure communication. Through a series of exercises, participants explore declarative and programmatic security techniques in JEE, while also examining both transport-layer and end-to-end security for web services. The practical application of all discussed 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 associated with the Java language, platform, and web technologies. In addition to typical errors made by Java programmers, the identified security vulnerabilities encompass both language-specific issues and problems arising from the runtime environment. All vulnerabilities and their corresponding attack vectors are illustrated through accessible exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and potential mitigation strategies.

Today, numerous programming languages are available for compiling code into the .NET and ASP.NET frameworks. While this environment offers robust tools for security development, it is essential for developers to understand how to apply architecture-level and code-level programming techniques. Doing so ensures the implementation of desired security features while preventing vulnerabilities or limiting their potential exploitation.

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

The introduction to various vulnerabilities begins by highlighting typical programming errors common in .NET development. The discussion on ASP.NET vulnerabilities further explores various environment configurations and their impact. Finally, the section on ASP.NET-specific issues addresses general web application security challenges as well as specific concerns and attack vectors, such as ViewState attacks and string termination exploits.

This course equips PHP developers with the essential skills needed to protect their applications against contemporary internet-based threats. By utilizing PHP-specific examples that extend beyond the OWASP Top Ten, the curriculum covers a wide array of injection attacks, script injections, session handling vulnerabilities, insecure direct object references, file upload issues, and more. PHP vulnerabilities are categorized into standard types such as missing or inadequate input validation, flawed error and exception handling, misuse of security features, and time- or state-related problems. The latter section explores attacks like open_basedir circumvention, denial-of-service via magic floats, and hash table collision attacks. Throughout, participants will become familiar with the key techniques and functions required to mitigate these risks.

A significant focus is placed on client-side security, addressing issues related to JavaScript, Ajax, and HTML5. The course introduces several PHP security extensions, including hash, mcrypt, and OpenSSL for cryptography, as well as Ctype, ext/filter, and HTML Purifier for input validation. Best practices for hardening are discussed in the context of PHP configuration (php.ini), Apache, and general server settings. Additionally, the course provides an overview of various security testing tools and techniques available to developers and testers, such as security scanners, penetration testing kits, exploit packs, sniffers, proxy servers, fuzzing tools, and static source code analyzers.
