OWASP 2021 Virtual AppSec Training Program

All developers today are also DevSecOps engineers even if they are not aware of it. In this Bootcamp, you will learn how to secure cloud-native Java microservices. First, we will look into what are the common security risks for server-side applications. Then we will directly dive into the hands-on coding parts to see how we can mitigate those security risks in our own applications. Specifically, we'll see how the security patterns are implemented with the most widely used frameworks Spring Boot (main focus) and Micronaut (partly). In the last part, you will also learn how to implement automated security tests along the testing-pyramid.
