Linkedin Learning – Developing Secure Software Online Class

Software developers are constantly told to use secure coding practices. Luckily, with today’s tools, secure code doesn’t take a lot of time or effort. There are security frameworks (authentication, authorization, etc.) developers can use as their own. There are also static and dynamic code analysis tools to test code. Plus, with security patterns that can be implemented at the design level-before coding ever begins-you can make sure you’re not reinventing the wheel.
