Engineer secure web applications is a course on designing and building secure web applications published by Dev-Academy. This course provides a comprehensive guide to designing and building secure web applications by addressing common vulnerabilities and best practices. You will learn how to implement authentication and authorization mechanisms, protect against SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (CSRF), and secure APIs and data storage. The course also covers secure coding techniques, encryption strategies, security testing, and compliance with industry standards such as OWASP and GDPR.

You will learn theoretical knowledge and apply it to the practical implementation of securing a real-world personal money tracker application. The project consists of five key modules – Auth, Dashboard, Expenses, Settings, and Admin – each designed to challenge and strengthen your web security skills. You will learn Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to effectively manage different user permissions and implement advanced security mechanisms in both front-end and back-end systems. By the end, you will have a solid understanding of web security principles and the ability to engineer applications that are resilient to cyber threats.
