Developing a secure networked application presents significant challenges, even for experienced developers who have previously utilized various 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 solid foundation on the core requirements of secure communication—namely secure acknowledgment, integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, and anonymity. It also addresses common threats that can compromise these requirements, alongside practical, real-world solutions.

Given that cryptography is a critical component of network security, the course explores essential algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement. Rather than focusing on complex mathematical theories, these topics are examined from a developer's perspective, featuring typical use-case examples and practical considerations such as the implementation of public key infrastructures. The course also introduces security protocols across various domains of secure communication, with a detailed examination of widely adopted protocol families including IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

Common cryptographic vulnerabilities are analyzed, covering issues related to specific algorithms and protocols such as BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and similar threats, as well as RSA timing attacks. For each vulnerability, the practical implications and potential consequences are clearly described, maintaining a focus on applicability without delving into deep mathematical intricacies.

Finally, recognizing that XML technology is central to data exchange for networked applications, the course covers the security aspects of XML. This includes the use of XML in web services and SOAP messages, alongside protective measures like XML Signature and XML Encryption. The discussion also highlights weaknesses in these protection mechanisms and XML-specific security issues, such as XML injection, XML External Entity (XXE) attacks, XML bombs, and XPath injection.

Participants attending this course will

• Grasp the fundamental concepts of security, IT security, and secure coding

Developers, Professionals

Over the course of three days, this training provides a comprehensive overview of how to safeguard C/C++ code against malicious actors who may exploit vulnerabilities related to memory management and input handling. The course focuses on the fundamental principles of writing secure code.

Even seasoned Java developers do not always master every security service provided by Java, nor are they fully aware of the various vulnerabilities relevant to web applications developed in Java.

Aside from introducing the security components of Standard Java Edition, this course addresses security concerns in Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and web services. The discussion of specific services begins with the foundations of cryptography and secure communication. Several exercises focus on declarative and programmatic security techniques in JEE, while the course covers both transport-layer and end-to-end security for web services. Practical exercises illustrate the use of these components, allowing participants to experiment with the discussed APIs and tools firsthand.

The course also examines and explains the most common and severe programming flaws in the Java language and platform, as well as web-related vulnerabilities. Beyond typical errors made by Java programmers, the security vulnerabilities addressed cover both language-specific issues and problems arising from the runtime environment. Each vulnerability and its associated attacks are demonstrated through easy-to-understand exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and mitigation techniques.

Participants attending this course will

• Understand the core concepts of security, IT security, and secure coding
• Learn about web vulnerabilities beyond the OWASP Top Ten and how to avoid them
• Gain an understanding of web service security concepts
• Learn to utilize various security features within the Java development environment
• Develop a practical understanding of cryptography
• Understand the security solutions available in Java EE
• Learn about typical coding mistakes and how to prevent them
• Receive information on recent vulnerabilities within the Java framework

Description

The Java language and the Runtime Environment (JRE) were designed to be free from the most problematic common security vulnerabilities experienced in other languages, like C/C++. Yet, software developers and architects should not only know how to use the various security features of the Java environment (positive security), but should also be aware of the numerous vulnerabilities that are still relevant for Java development (negative security).

The introduction of security services is preceded with a brief overview of the foundations of cryptography, providing a common baseline for understanding the purpose and the operation of the applicable components. The use of these components is presented through several practical exercises, where participants can try out the discussed APIs for themselves.

The course also goes through and explains the most frequent and severe programming flaws of the Java language and platform, covering both the typical bugs committed by Java programmers and the language- and environment-specific issues. All vulnerabilities and the relevant attacks are demonstrated through easy-to-understand exercises, followed by the recommended coding guidelines and the possible mitigation techniques.

Participants attending this course will

• Understand basic concepts of security, IT security and secure coding
