What you'll learn

Apply “what to watch out for” and “where to look” to evaluate fragility of C++ library code.

Given a fragile C++ library, code a robust version.

Identify problems w/ privilege, trusted environments, input validation, files & sub-processes, resource mngmt, asynchronicity, & randomness in C/C++.

Remediate examples of problems that apply to C/C++ interactions with the programming environment.

Skills you'll gain

OS Process Management

Data Validation

File Management

C and C++

C (Programming Language)

Secure Coding

Cryptography

Linux

Application Security

Vulnerability Assessments

Debugging

Identity and Access Management

Security Engineering

Encryption

The techniques you’ll be examining will make your programs perform accurately and be resistant to attempts to perform inaccurately. This is really what the term secure programming means. You will be shown common errors that people make, and then learn how to program more robustly. You will apply tips and best practices to help you improve your programming style and help you to avoid common problems like buffer overflows, which may or may not cause security problems.

Validation and Verification, Buffer and Numeric Overflows, and Input Injections

Files, Subprocesses, and Race Conditions

Randomness, Cryptography, and Other Topics
