Cyber Secure Coder (CSC-110)
Overview
Cyber Secure Coder will aid in developing an appropriate understanding of secure development practices and how those practices protect against various types of vulnerabilities. You will learn the types of vulnerabilities, the exploits that can occur from those vulnerabilities, and the programming practices that will help prevent exploitation in an application.

Welcome.
I am Daniel Lowrie and
entertainer here at ITPROTV.
We're here to discuss the cybersecurity
coder overview series.
I want to tell you
a little bit about myself.
I have been in IT for over 20 years,
I have an extensive background in
cybersecurity with
certifications in that area.
I've also worked as a systems
administrator and a network administrator
for corporate America had a lot
of good times doing that.
Justin wants to tell us
a little bit about yourself,.
I'm Justin Dennison
been in development and
IT and Technology for
a little over eight years.
And I'm gonna be the subject
matter expert for
cyber secure coder hopefully
to give you all the goodness.
It'll be a lot of fun.
So Justin can you tell us a little bit
about this course basically who should be
watching this course and what's in it?
What kind of problems is the software.
So there's a couple of things that
you didn't get from this course.
Number one,
you didn't get a certification, right.
It's a validation that hey, I know these
things, I kind of understand these things.
The second thing that you can
get is knowledge about how
to approach development,
software development, and the process
is there in, in a security minded way.
Right, okay.
I'm not just doing it craziness.
I'm actually going to approach my design,
my implementation, my testing,
my deployment, my maintenance in
a way that helps keep security going.
And we'll, that way, people like Daniel
aren't necessarily going to get their foot
in the door and
make things go horribly wrong, awesome.
Now this is a certification based exam,
you do get a lot of great information
that's practical as well.
But we are working towards certification.
Can you tell us a little bit about that?
Cert.
So the cert is,
this cert nexus cyber secure
coder examination, CSC 1 10.
That's a mouthful.
Yeah, that is a mouthful.
I'm pretty sure we will not
say that a whole a lot.
But the certification is just going to
test you on kind of your general thought
processes around secure development.
And well, does that look like when
you go to get that certification?
Well, you're gonna sit for an exam at
your nearest Pearson test center, right?
Pearson Vue.
Typically, if you've had
any type of IT training,
you're going to be at
a Pearson Center at some point.
Not necessarily all the time, but at some
point, you're gonna have 80 questions that
consist of multiple choice,
multiple response or true false.
And you have 100 and
20 minutes including five minutes for
Canada agreement and five minutes for
the Pearson Vue tutorial.
So let's say you get 100 and 10,
you get What about a minute minute 30
per question, should be good to go.
Right.
And as always,
make sure you use appropriate
testing strategies where you go.
I don't know it.
Next.
Right.
And then come back to those later on.
And passing scores a 56 out of 80 or 70%,
70 above means you passed 70 and below.
Not so much now,
as far as the certification goes,
how are you gonna split this up?
We have several domains and those domains
are developing secure code implementing
common protections,
testing a software security.
Security and
software which includes design,
kind of thought processes around that and
then handling vulnerabilities.
Right?
And making a distinction between
vulnerabilities and exploits.
So that's kind of the certification
in a nutshell, awesome.
That sounds really exciting.
I can't wait to get into this thing and
see the methodologies and
ways in which they're going to show
us that as we develop applications.
And we can start seeing these things more
security focused, and security minded.
Any thoughts on that when it comes to you?
Well, I'm excited because I know
that when I was a young developers,
security was completely out of my mind.
I was like, whatever just make it work.
But it can cost you a lot of money
as a business, as an individual.
If you don't try to make
these security things better.
Right?
I don't have appropriate testing, design,
thought process in action.
And well,
I'm excited to help convey that to you so
you can get better at your craft.
Get better at your job.
I'm not guaranteeing a race, but it would
be nice, but you never know, right?
If you're better and
hopefully you can demand more.
And we'll see how that goes.
Yeah, good points, all of them.
That being said, hopefully you're
excited about this course and
we look forward to seeing you
in the upcoming episodes.
Thank you for watching ITPROTV.
