Description of the Application Security Training Course
This application security training course will enable you to identify common vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10), avoid them from the design stage onwards, secure your code, APIs and data, and deploy robust, compliant applications.
Attacks targeting web and mobile applications are on the rise. XSS, injection, poor rights management, unsecured APIs… It is now crucial to integrate security throughout the entire application lifecycle.
Format
Remote (recorded sessions).
GOOD TO KNOW
This training course includes numerous exercises (60% practical) to enhance learning. Sessions are guaranteed with a minimum of one participant (except in cases of force majeure). A preliminary interview is held between the participant and/or a company representative in order to fully assess the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.).
Assessment : during the training course, the trainer assesses the participants’ progress through multiple-choice questions, role-playing exercises and practical work. Participants receive a certificate of completion at the end of the training course.
objectives of of the Application Security Training Course
By the end, each participant will be able to :
- Understand the most common types of attacks on applications.
- Integrate security best practices into code (input validation, session management, cryptography).
- Test and fix vulnerabilities with appropriate tools (SAST, DAST, ZAP, Burp, etc.).
- Securing communications (HTTPS, TLS, CORS, CSP).
- Applying security in APIs (authentication, authorisation, tokens, rate limiting).
- Integrating security into a DevSecOps pipeline (CI/CD).
- Understanding legal and regulatory aspects (developer responsibility).
Prerequisites of the Application Security Training Course
- Basic knowledge of web or mobile development (HTML, JS, PHP, Python, Java, etc.).
- Comfortable with an IDE and a local or cloud deployment environment.
- No need for cybersecurity knowledge (beginner to intermediate level)
Because each participant has a unique background and expectations, a preliminary interview with our expert allows us to precisely identify their objectives, level and professional challenges.
This enables us to tailor the training content to ensure relevant and personalised learning.
Target Audience
Ideal for front-end/back-end developers, DevOps, testers, tech leads, or anyone wishing to professionalise their application security practice.
