Implementing a secure networked application can be challenging, even for developers who have previously used various cryptographic components like encryption and digital signatures. To help participants grasp the role and usage of these cryptographic tools, a solid foundation is laid on the primary requirements of secure communication—secure acknowledgment, integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, and anonymity. The course also highlights typical issues that can compromise these requirements and offers practical solutions.

Cryptography plays a crucial role in network security, and the most important cryptographic algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement are thoroughly discussed. Rather than delving into complex mathematical theories, these elements are presented from a developer's perspective, with examples of typical use cases and practical considerations related to cryptography, such as public key infrastructures. Security protocols across various secure communication areas are introduced, with an in-depth focus on widely-used protocol families like IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

Common cryptographic vulnerabilities are examined, including those related to specific algorithms and protocols like BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and similar issues, as well as the RSA timing attack. Each vulnerability is described in terms of practical implications and potential consequences, avoiding deep mathematical details.

Since XML technology is fundamental for data exchange in networked applications, the course covers the security aspects of XML. This includes the use of XML within web services and SOAP messages, along with protection measures such as XML signatures and XML encryption. The course also addresses weaknesses in these protection measures and XML-specific security issues like XML injection, XML external entity (XXE) attacks, XML bombs, and XPath injection.

Participants attending this course will

• Gain an understanding of basic concepts in security, IT security, and secure coding

Description

The Java language and Runtime Environment (JRE) were designed to mitigate the most common security vulnerabilities found in other languages, such as C/C++. However, software developers and architects should not only be proficient in using the various security features of the Java environment (positive security), but they should also be aware of the numerous vulnerabilities that still pose risks for Java development (negative security).
