Hands-on Laboratory Exercises for Teaching Software Security
To meet the growing demand for skilled professionals who can develop secure software, it is important to provide software security education to computer science students in colleges and universities. This paper describes a set of hands-on laboratory exercises we developed to teach software security. These laboratory exercises cover the following topics: code review with tools, web application vulnerability assessment, web spidering, exploiting hidden value, fuzz testing, and threat modeling. Our teaching experiences and related work are also discussed.
The Colloquium™ recognizes that the protection of information and infrastructures that are used to create, store, process, and communicate information is vital to business continuity and security. The goal of The Colloquium™ is to work together to define current and emerging requirements for information assurance education and to influence and encourage the development and expansion of information assurance curricula, especially at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
