In 1733, Benjamin Franklin penned the phrase, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” This modern-day parable is easily applied to online security as well. Most of these problems can be prevented by 1) being aware of your security risks and 2) implementing a handful of security best practices.
This course covers most of the website security fundamentals. It will make you aware of the different types of risks, teach you how to detect and mitigate them, and equip you with the tools to automate the detection and prevention of security breaches.
