Secure By Design by Dan Johnsson

Description

As a developer, you need to build software in a secure way. But you can't spend all your time focusing on security. The answer is to use good design principles, tools, and mindsets that make security an implicit result - it's secure by design.

Secure by Design teaches developers how to use design to drive security in software development. This book is full of patterns, best practices, and mindsets that you can directly apply to your real world development.

Key features

·   Use good design to create secure software

·   Apply design concepts in real-world cases

·   Spot hidden security problems

·   Assess security by identifying design patterns

·   Understand benefits and limitations of secure-by-design

Audience

Readers should have some experience in Java, C#/.NET, or similar language.

About the technology

Secure-by-design becomes a guiding principle in how you build your software, from code to architecture. This begins by understanding designs and patterns that promote security so they become easy to apply in your day-to-day work.

Dan Bergh Johnsson, Daniel Deogun, and Daniel Sawano have collectively been working with security and development for several decades. They are developers at heart and understand that security is often a side-concern. They have also evolved work habits that enable them to develop systems in a way that promotes security, while focusing on high-quality design habits - something that is easier for developers to keep in mind during their daily work. All three are established international speakers and often present at conferences on topics regarding high-quality development as well as security.
