Secure Software Development Series Course One – Secure Software Concepts

Software can meet its functional requirements and still be insecure. Secure Software Concepts introduces the security principles behind design and procurement, making it relevant to developers, software engineers and learners building a foundation in software security.

The course covers the CIA triad, AAA and encryption before turning to design principles. Least privilege, separation of duties and defense in depth connect access decisions with the way protection is organized across a system.

Examine the design choices behind security

Fail-safe design, economy of mechanism, complete mediation and open design are among the further principles discussed. Least common mechanism, psychological acceptability and using existing components extend the coverage. Single points of failure provide another perspective on the structure and reliability of a system.

This is the concepts installment in the Secure Software Development series. It introduces terminology and design fundamentals that can inform later study of requirements, implementation and testing.

Use PLR for secure-software fundamentals

A PLR license lets you adapt, rebrand and resell this course. A software educator could place it at the beginning of a security curriculum or tailor it for developers reviewing design principles. Describe any other series installments in your offer separately.
