Building a secure networked application can be challenging, even for developers who have previously utilized various cryptographic components like encryption and digital signatures. To help participants grasp the role and application of these cryptographic primitives, the course first establishes a strong foundation on the core requirements of secure communication—including secure acknowledgment, integrity, confidentiality, remote authentication, and anonymity. It also outlines common threats that can compromise these requirements alongside real-world mitigation strategies.

Given that cryptography is a critical component of network security, the course examines essential cryptographic algorithms, including symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement protocols. Rather than focusing on complex mathematical theories, the material is presented from a developer's perspective, featuring typical use-case examples and practical considerations such as public key infrastructure (PKI). Additionally, security protocols across various domains of secure communication are introduced, with a detailed examination of widely adopted protocol families like IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

The course addresses common cryptographic vulnerabilities associated with specific algorithms and protocols, such as BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE, and RSA timing attacks. For each issue, practical implications and potential consequences are explained without delving into deep mathematical details.

Finally, since XML technology is central to data exchange in networked applications, the course covers XML security aspects. This includes the use of XML in web services and SOAP messages, protection mechanisms like XML Signature and XML Encryption, and potential weaknesses in these measures.

Description

The Java language and its Runtime Environment (JRE) were intentionally designed to eliminate many of the common, problematic security vulnerabilities frequently found in other languages, such as C and C++. However, software developers and architects must do more than just know how to utilize the various security features available in the Java environment (positive security); they must also be fully aware of the numerous vulnerabilities that remain relevant to Java development (negative security).

The introduction of security services begins with a brief overview of cryptographic foundations, establishing a common baseline for understanding the purpose and operation of applicable components. Participants will explore the practical use of these components through several hands-on exercises, allowing them to experiment with the discussed APIs firsthand.

The course also examines and explains the most frequent and severe programming flaws within the Java language and platform. This covers both typical errors made by Java programmers and issues specific to the language and environment. All vulnerabilities and related attack vectors are demonstrated through easy-to-understand exercises, followed by recommended coding guidelines and effective mitigation techniques.
