OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities
Welcome again to the realm of web security, where millions of dollars and people’s lives are on the line. Not every web application has that much on the line, but many do, and it’s your job as the developer or manager to keep your users safe! From protecting static web sites to the most complex of web services and APIs, every web developer should be aware of, and adept at writing secure code and building systems that can stand up to the strongest of malicious users. In this course, we will build on earlier courses in basic web security by diving into the OWASP Top 10 for Node.js and JavaScript. The OWASP Top 10 is a trusted knowledge framework covering the top 10 major web security vulnerabilities, as well as providing information on how to mitigate them. Throughout this course, we will explore each vulnerability in general and in the scope of how they occur in JavaScript (as the frontend) and Node.js (as the backend).

Introduction to Application Security
Welcome to the realm of web security, where millions of dollars and people’s lives are on the line. Well, not in all cases, but some! From protecting static web sites to the most complex of web services and APIs, every web developer should be aware of and adept at writing secure code and building systems that can stand up to the strongest of malicious users. In this course, we will lay the groundwork for what you need to know to get started exploring the vast field of web security, and along the way you will begin to realize that security isn’t about checking boxes, but rather about embedding the thought process and principles of rock-solid security into every line of code you write. First, we will discuss why security matters to you as a web developer, then we will look at data security at an implementation level, then finally we will examine the art of maintaining your websites, apps, and services on a daily basis.

Introduction to Docker
Docker allows any developer of any language to package an app into a container, like a shipping container. Containers include an app and all the other software it depends on, like databases. Containers let your users easily run your website, app, or service on any operating system they want. This course will show you how Docker works, and how it can make it easier to distribute your software!
