From the Back Cover



A TRIED-AND-TESTED APPROACH TO BUILDING SECURITY INTO PROJECTS FROM THE START

Do you have difficulty implementing application security into your software development process? Alice and Bob Learn Application Security shows readers how to "push left" in software, by building security considerations into their system development life cycle, right from the start.

You'll learn basic security fundamentals and requirements, as well as secure design concepts, all while benefiting from the code, exercises, and examples interspersed throughout the text.

Written by one of the leading voices in the application security field, the book includes answers to the most common questions people starting out in application security often have. It also includes valuable additional resources where readers can find more answers.

The core security concepts are illustrated through references to the personas of Alice and Bob and how their professional lives and businesses drive application security decisions. The book takes a pleasantly straightforward approach that's heavy on practical strategies and light on needless jargon or complexity. At the same time, it supplies the rigor or richness you would expect to find in a leading resource on the topic of application security.

The book is perfect for current and aspiring software and application developers. It also belongs on the bookshelves of software project managers, Chief Information Security Officers, and penetration testers who seek to improve their craft and their ability to deliver valuable results.

  • Security fundamentals and requirements
  • Secure design concepts
  • Secure coding (with guidelines)
  • The basics of threat modelling and security testing
  • How to build an AppSec program
