How do you build secure software from start to finish? This course teaches you how to integrate security into every stage of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) — from requirements and design to implementation, verification, and beyond. You'll gain practical knowledge on identifying and addressing cybersecurity risks throughout the development process. Designed for non-security experts, the course helps you, whether you're a developer, manager, or decision-maker, understand how to use security practices to improve your software products or services. You'll leave with the skills to tackle security challenges in your industry.
