Web applications today are being hacked with alarming regularity by hacktivists, online criminals, and nation states.
Very frequently, it is the same prevalent security risks being exploited which is why the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) developed their list of Top 10 Most Critical Web Application Security Risks to help developers build more secure software.
This course helps developers apply the Top 10 in ASP.NET using both web forms and MVC by walking through an overview of the risk, demonstrating how it can be exploited in .NET and then delving into the various approaches available to mitigate it by applying security in depth.

OWASP publishes a Top Ten list of the current most vulnerable security risks posed to web applications.
Something to remember is that nobody is safe from determined attackers - but don't let yourself be a low-hanging fruit.
While the OWASP Top 10 is technology agnostic, in this guide, we will be looking specifically at ASP.NET security.
You will need a working knowledge of the .NET platform as this course is designed to show you how to locate and how to implement security in ASP.NET web applications.
This course is aimed at developers who want to protect their web apps from common security exploits.
