Secure coding

Available Hours: 8 Instructor: Łukasz Gostkowski Last updated 05/2026

Description

Secure programming is a key element of effective application security. Even the best infrastructure and security tools cannot compensate for code errors that can lead to vulnerabilities, data leaks, or system compromise. Most modern attacks on web and backend applications still exploit well-known, repetitive classes of programming errors.

The "Secure Coding" training focuses on a practical approach to creating attack-resistant code. Participants will learn the most common vulnerabilities, their causes, and ways to prevent them during the coding phase. The training combines theory with examples and exercises, demonstrating how secure programming practices have a real impact on the quality and stability of developed applications.

Who is this for?

Developers (backend, frontend, full-stack), development teams working on web applications and APIs, technical leaders and code reviewers, Security Champions and AppSec competency builders, testers and QA engineers interested in application security.

Training goals

  • Participants will:
  • understand how code errors lead to security vulnerabilities,
  • learn about the most common classes of vulnerabilities (according to the OWASP Top 10),
  • learn how to write code that is resistant to attacks from the implementation stage,
  • learn how to avoid common programming pitfalls,
  • learn about best practices for data validation, error and exception handling,
  • learn how to read code from a security perspective (secure code review),
  • increase awareness of threats and developer responsibilities.

Training format

Duration: 1 day Format: online (after gathering the group) or on-site for closed groups Materials: presentations and safety checklists for participants Exercises: interactive workshop, practical exercises

Benefits for the organization

  • Reducing the number of vulnerabilities in developed applications,
  • higher quality and stability of production code,
  • lower patch costs thanks to early detection of problems,
  • better collaboration between development and security teams,
  • increasing the maturity of software development processes,
  • meeting the requirements of security standards and best practices.
