Description

The Java language and the Runtime Environment (JRE) were designed to be free from the most problematic common security vulnerabilities experienced in other languages, such as C/C++. However, software developers and architects should not only know how to use the various security features of the Java environment (positive security), but also be aware of the numerous vulnerabilities that are still relevant for Java development (negative security).

The introduction of security services is preceded by a brief overview of the foundations of cryptography, providing a common baseline for understanding the purpose and operation of the applicable components. The use of these components is presented through several practical exercises, where participants can try out the discussed APIs for themselves.

This course also covers the most frequent and severe programming flaws of the Java language and platform, including both typical bugs committed by Java programmers and language- and environment-specific issues. All vulnerabilities and the relevant attacks are demonstrated through easy-to-understand exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and possible mitigation techniques.

After gaining familiarity with vulnerabilities and attack methods, participants will learn about the general approach and methodology for security testing, along with techniques that can be applied to uncover specific vulnerabilities. Security testing should begin with information gathering about the system (ToC, i.e., Target of Evaluation), followed by a thorough threat modeling process to identify and rate all threats, culminating in a risk analysis-driven test plan.

Security evaluations can occur at various stages of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Therefore, we discuss design reviews, code reviews, reconnaissance and information gathering about the system, testing the implementation, and securing the environment for deployment. The course introduces numerous security testing techniques in detail, such as taint analysis, heuristic-based code review, static code analysis, dynamic web vulnerability testing, and fuzzing. Various types of tools are presented to automate the security evaluation of software products, supported by exercises where these tools are used to analyze previously discussed vulnerable code. Real-life case studies enhance understanding of various vulnerabilities.

This course equips testers and quality assurance (QA) staff with the necessary skills to effectively plan and execute security tests, select and use appropriate tools and techniques to identify even hidden security flaws, providing essential practical skills that can be applied immediately in their work for government.
