About the course

What this course is.

In WEBSEC you derive protective measures from the threats to your web application. You classify the assets worth protecting, weigh security against usability, build input validation and output escaping into the design, choose hashing, encryption and trust mechanisms, work through injection, DoS and man-in-the-middle attacks, and place a WAF and TLS around the running system.

WEBSEC has no exam of its own. Attending earns credit points toward CPSA-A admission; the certification itself is an assignment and an oral exam.
