Android is an open platform designed for mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. It offers a wide range of security features to facilitate the development of secure software; however, it lacks certain security aspects found in other handheld platforms. This course provides a comprehensive overview of these features and highlights the most critical shortcomings related to the underlying Linux system, file management, and the general environment, as well as issues concerning permissions and other Android software development components.

Common security pitfalls and vulnerabilities are discussed for both native code and Java applications, along with recommendations and best practices to avoid and mitigate these risks. Many of the issues covered are supported by real-life examples and case studies. Additionally, we provide a brief overview of how to use security testing tools to identify any programming bugs that could compromise security.

Participants attending this course will

• Understand fundamental concepts of security, IT security, and secure coding

Implementing a secure networked application can be challenging, even for developers who have previously worked with various cryptographic components like encryption and digital signatures. To ensure participants grasp the role and usage of these cryptographic primitives, the course begins by laying a solid foundation on the core requirements of secure communication—secure acknowledgment, integrity, confidentiality, remote identification, and anonymity. It also highlights typical issues that can compromise these requirements along with real-world solutions.

Given that cryptography is a critical aspect of network security, the most important cryptographic algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement are discussed. Rather than delving into complex mathematical theories, these elements are presented from a developer's perspective, focusing on practical use-case examples and considerations related to implementing cryptographic solutions, such as public key infrastructures. The course also introduces security protocols across various secure communication areas, with an in-depth look at widely-used protocol families like IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

The discussion includes typical vulnerabilities associated with specific crypto algorithms and cryptographic protocols, such as BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and similar attacks. Each vulnerability is explained in terms of practical considerations and potential consequences, without getting into detailed mathematical explanations.

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

Participants attending this course will

• Understand basic concepts of security, IT security, and secure coding
• Grasp the requirements of secure communication
• Learn about network attacks and defenses at different OSI layers
• Gain a practical understanding of cryptography
• Comprehend essential security protocols
• Understand recent attacks against cryptosystems
• Receive information on recent related vulnerabilities
• Understand the security concepts of Web services
• Access sources and further readings on secure coding practices

This three-day course delves into the fundamentals of securing C/C++ code to protect against malicious users who might exploit various vulnerabilities related to memory management and input handling. The course covers the principles of writing secure code.

Even experienced Java programmers do not always fully grasp the various security services provided by Java, nor are they necessarily aware of the different vulnerabilities relevant to web applications written in Java.

This course, in addition to introducing the security components of Standard Java Edition, delves into the security issues surrounding Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and web services. Before discussing specific services, it covers the fundamentals of cryptography and secure communication. Various exercises focus on declarative and programmatic security techniques in JEE, while both transport-layer and end-to-end security for web services are explored. The use of all components is demonstrated through practical exercises, allowing participants to experiment with the discussed APIs and tools.

The course also examines and explains the most frequent and severe programming flaws associated with the Java language and platform, as well as web-related vulnerabilities. It addresses both typical bugs made by Java programmers and security issues specific to the runtime environment. All vulnerabilities and corresponding attacks are illustrated through straightforward exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and mitigation techniques.
