Description
Certified Application Security Engineer
The Certified Application Security Engineer (CASE) credential was developed in partnership with application and software development experts globally. The CASE credential tests the critical security skills and knowledge required throughout a typical software development life cycle (SDLC), focusing on the importance of the implementation of secure methodologies and practices in today’s insecure operating environment. The CASE certified training program was developed to prepare software professionals with the capabilities that are expected by employers and academia globally. It is designed to be a hands-on, comprehensive application security training course to teach software professionals to create secure applications. The training program encompasses security activities involved in all phases of the secure SDLC: planning, creating, testing, and deploying an application. Unlike other application security trainings, CASE goes beyond just the guidelines on secure coding practices and includes secure requirement gathering, robust application design, and handling security issues in the post development phases of application development. This makes CASE one of the most comprehensive application security certifications for secure software development on the market today. It’s desired by software application engineers, analysts, and testers from around the world and is respected by hiring authorities.
