Book Description
Perfect for any programmer or developer who wants to increase the security of their software projects, this book provides a hands-on approach to secure software development. Explore core concepts like security specification, modeling, and threat mitigation. The iterative approach presented in the book allows for the traceability of security requirements through the phases of software development. We don't stop at the basics. We will dig into multiple-layer attacks and how to think about and prevent them. Through the process, we will present an example application project for the development of an entertainment ticketing software system. In our example, we will consider high-profile security incidents that have affected the musical and performance stars we love to see. This example comes from the author's decades of experience building secure applications in this domain. Embrace secure development with our comprehensive technique in which problem-solving meets practicality. By the end of the book, you'll possess the expertise to systematically secure software projects, from crafting robust security specifications to adeptly mitigating multifaceted threats, ensuring your applications stand resilient in the face of evolving cybersecurity challenges.What you will learn
