SE 4930 - Developing Secure Software2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
The complexity of software applications and the value of the data being handled by these applications has risen multi-fold in recent times. Unfortunately, this has been accompanied by the increased sophistication of the attack to gain unauthorized access to that data. When designing a malicious attack, attackers often exploit existing weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the current applications. Many of these vulnerabilities are a result of software defects that could possibly have been avoided if good “secure” development practices were followed. This course provides an overview of the various techniques and best-practices used in the different phases of a software development life cycle that are targeted towards the development of secure software. Students will work in teams using professional tools to analyze the security of existing systems, and students will read professional publications dealing with software security. (prereq: SE 2800 or SE-280 or SE 2890 )
