CSWAEs work to design information systems that are secure on the web. Organizations & governments fall victim to internet-based attacks every day. In many cases, web attacks could be thwarted but hackers, criminal gangs, and foreign agents are able to exploit web app weaknesses. A Secure Web programmer knows how to identify, mitigate and defend against all attacks through designing & building systems that are resistant to failure. With this course you will learn how to develop web apps that aren’t subject to common vulnerabilities, and how to test & validate apps so they are secure, reliable & resistant to attack. These secure coding skills are in desperate need today because the internet is one of the most dangerous places to do business; there are countless cases of valuable information being stolen from businesses due to vulnerabilities in their web apps. When programmers don't understand the principles of secure coding, doors are open to those who do.
