Secure Software Development Life Cycle SDLC

The Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) Skills Tests are designed to evaluate critical security skills across Secure Requirements and Design, Secure Coding and Testing, and Secure Deployment and Operations. The tests assess the ability to define security requirements, perform threat modeling, and design secure architectures. They also measure proficiency in secure coding practices to prevent vulnerabilities like injection flaws and cross-site scripting (XSS), as well as knowledge of security testing, including static and dynamic analysis.

Additionally, the tests cover secure deployment practices, including configuration management, secrets handling, vulnerability management, and incident response. Participants will demonstrate their understanding of integrating security into DevOps (DevSecOps) and maintaining secure operations. These assessments ensure that developers, architects, and DevOps professionals have the expertise to embed security throughout the software lifecycle, protecting applications and data from evolving threats.
