Web Application Security by Design

This presentation will discuss how development of a secure web application is more than just a matter of writing good code. Security must be an integral part of the entire software life cycle, starting from the very conception of the software development project. Security must be a priority to the developer(s) and other stakeholders, on par with functionality. We will examine how making security a priority affects each stage of development.

Outcomes: Understand the importance of prioritizing security throughout an application's life cycle * Understand the effects of prioritizing security at each stage of the application's life cycle * Recognize the importance of stakeholder involvement in prioritizing security
