This course can be adapted to the following programming languages: C / C++JAVA / C# / .NET / ASP. NET WEB
Testing plays a very important role in ensuring security and robustness of applications. Various approaches –from high level auditing through penetration testing to ethical hacking –can be applied to find vulnerabilities of different types. Remember: security testers should ideally find all bugs to protect a system, while for adversaries it is enough to find asingle exploitable vulnerability to reach their goals. Therefore, if you want to go beyond the easy-to-find low-hanging fruits, security testing should bewell planned, properly executed, and thus needs a strong security expertise. This is why this course is a must-attend for all testers of security-sensitive applications.
