EC-Council Certified DevSecOps Engineer (ECDE) Training Course

Today, numerous programming languages can compile code for the .NET and ASP.NET frameworks. While this environment offers robust tools for security development, developers must understand how to apply programming techniques at both the architectural and coding levels. This knowledge is essential for implementing desired security features while avoiding vulnerabilities or limiting their exploitation.

The primary goal of this course is to guide developers through numerous hands-on exercises. Participants will learn how to prevent untrusted code from executing privileged actions, protect resources using strong authentication and authorization mechanisms, manage remote procedure calls, handle sessions, and explore various implementation strategies for specific functionalities, among other critical skills.

The introduction to various vulnerabilities begins by highlighting typical programming errors commonly made when using .NET. The discussion on ASP.NET vulnerabilities also covers different environment settings and their impact. Furthermore, the topic of ASP.NET-specific vulnerabilities addresses not only general web application security challenges but also specialized issues and attack vectors, such as attacks targeting the ViewState or string termination exploits.

Participants attending this course will

• Grasp fundamental concepts of security, IT security, and secure coding practices
• Identify web vulnerabilities beyond the OWASP Top Ten and learn how to avoid them
• Utilize various security features within the .NET development environment
• Gain practical experience with security testing tools
• Recognize typical coding mistakes and understand how to prevent them
• Learn about recent vulnerabilities affecting .NET and ASP.NET
• Access sources and further reading materials on secure coding practices
