    Secure design and coding in DevOps with Threat Modelling are advanced and innovative in the software development market.

    COVID-19 has accelerated digitalisation of businesses and increased presence of e-commerce. While company security doesn’t run at the same pace, it widens the appetite of hackers. As a result, many data leakage events arose from non-secure web applications.

    It is crucial for businesses to make sure that their points of contacts (web applications) are secure to use in order to provide a safe experience for the customers.

    The 2-day workshop is tailored for the ones with programming experience. It will take you through the web technology knowledge, common coding issues of web application, cloud security and secure coding to protect them. A practical hands-on lab will be provided to enhance participants’ understanding of secure coding.
