This course got straight to the point. I finally understand the OWASP Top 10 and how each vulnerability affects my code. Perfect for developers who need clear examples and fast explanations.
Melissa R.
Great introduction to AppSec! It helped me connect secure coding practices to the development lifecycle and gave me the basic knowledge I needed to address common software vulnerabilities like security misconfiguration and monitoring failures. A solid step toward improving software security and reducing security risks.
Rahul V.
I liked the direct approach and real-world breakdowns of each vulnerability. It’s ideal if you want a solid security foundation without a lot of fluff. A few more visuals would’ve made it perfect.
