.NET core vulnerabilities mitigation
Mitigation of vulnerabilities is a critical statement in the fight against cybercriminals. This course explores vulnerability mitigation.
Course description
This course will overview a plethora of .NET Core mitigation procedures that will help your software withstand sophisticated cyberattacks. And the best part of this advanced class is that it will help you understand how mitigation works while building code that does what it is supposed to do and nothing more.
Syllabus
Hands-on
Video - 01:05:00
In this module, we will go through hands-on mitigation of SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, unrestricted file upload, directory traversal, unvalidated redirects and mass.
Data access and storage
Video - 00:06:00
Communicating with the database and querying records is one of the most sensitive parts of an application. In this module, we will see how to properly establish a secure connection between the app and the database.
Authentication
Video - 00:18:00
Authentication is the process of users proving to a service that they are who they say they are. Generally, in the web world, it is used to give users access to confidential data or systems by requiring a set of identifying credentials. Implemented wrong, it can compromise the users, application or even the whole infrastructure. We'll learn the best way to implement authentication on .NET Core.
Captcha
Video - 00:14:00
Captcha was invented to prevent spam automated software from posting comments on pages, opening spam accounts on sign-up forms, brute-forcing attacks against login pages, posting spamming blogs or news, and much more. In this module, we'll go through the implementation of this vital security feature.
Security headers
Video - 00:09:00
HTTP headers have their implication for application security, since they carry information about the communication between client and server. In this module, we will go through some of the security headers and their role in application security.
Serialization and deserialization
Video - 00:07:00
Serialization and deserialization are used when transmitting data or storing data in a file. The structure helps to translate objects to different types back and forth easily. In this module, we will see some security risks that can occur and how to remediate them properly.
Cross-site scripting
Video - 00:03:00
XSS prevention can be easy and hard, depending on the application's use case or the data visualization. In this module, we'll discuss how .NET Core handles XSS and some other manual fixes that seem secure at first sight but are not.
Cross-site request forgery
Video - 00:06:00
A major part of application security mitigations is CSRF. This module shows the step-by-step security mechanism implementation that prevents this attack.
File upload
Video - 00:08:00
In this module, we examine the nature of some of the attacks that can be performed on file upload forms and how to mitigate them. We'll learn how to prevent types of remote code execution and denial of service.
Input validation
Video - 00:07:00
User input is one of the most important aspects of programming concepts where nearly all the applications at some point in time would need to accept user interaction with the platform through input submissions. In this module, we will take a look at code that handles user input and ways to make it secure.
