Securing Java Web Applications Through Authentication

Your users' usernames and passwords are the keys to the kingdom. Watch and apply this course in order to approach authenticating and managing secure data in Java web applications with greater confidence.

How long would your users' usernames and passwords survive an attack? In this course, Security Java Web Applications Using Authentication, you will gain the ability to detect and mitigate authentication vulnerabilities. First, you will detect enumeration vulnerabilities. Next, you will find brute force ones. Then, in plaintext. Finally, you will explore how to securely log in order to detect attacks at runtime. When you're finished with this course, you will have the Application Security skills and knowledge needed to securely authenticate users.
