DES 212 – Architecture Risk Analysis & Remediation (UPDATED)

Course Overview

Security flaws within software architecture and design can expose sensitive information and increase an application’s overall risk. This course describes how to analyze application architecture, identify trust boundaries, model threats using attack trees, and apply risk remediation techniques to new and existing software systems.

On successful completion of this course, learners should have the knowledge and skills required to:

• Analyze software architecture and design for security flaws
• Calculate and classify risk scores using threat modeling and attack analysis techniques
• Protect sensitive data through secure coding standards, data-state controls, anonymization, and pseudonymization
