Requirements

  • A basic understanding of programming

Description

The purpose of this course is to provide students with a fundamental understanding of computer security, through the study of the top 10 most common security vulnerabilities, as provided by OWASP.

By the end of this course, students will have enough of an understanding to make design choices that preserve the security of the applications they own. This course can also serve as a way to gain foundations required to proceed to more advanced security topics.

Who this course is for:

  • Beginner programmers and security researchers looking to learn about computer security
