Duration 4 Days 24 CPD hours This course is intended for This is an intermediate-level programming course, designed for experienced .Net developers who wish to get up and running on developing well defended software applications. Real world programming experience with .Net is required. Overview Students who attend Attacking and Securing .Net Web Applications will leave the course armed with the skills required to recognize actual and potential software vulnerabilities and implement defenses for those vulnerabilities. This course begins by developing the skills required to fingerprint a web application and then scan it for vulnerabilities and bugs. Practical labs using current tools and techniques provide students with the experience needed to begin testing their own applications. Students also gain a deeper understanding of how attackers probe applications to understand the runtime environment as well as find potential weaknesses. This course the introduces developers to the most common security vulnerabilities faced by web applications today. Each vulnerability is examined from a .Net perspective through a process of describing the threat and attack mechanisms, recognizing associated vulnerabilities, and, finally, designing, implementing effective defenses. Practical labs reinforce these concepts with real vulnerabilities and attacks. Students are then challenged to design and implement the layered defenses they will need in defending their own applications. There is an emphasis on the underlying vulnerability patterns since the technologies, use cases, and methods of attack as constantly changing. The patterns remain the same through all the change and flux. This 'skills-centric' course is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture, designed to train attendees in secure web application development, coding and design, coupling the most current, effective techniques with the soundest industry practices. Our instructors and mentors are highly experienced practitioners who bring years of current 'on-the-job' experience into every classroom.
