Course Overview

The App Security for Developers course by OWASP is a foundational training program designed to equip software engineers, web developers, and application security engineers with the skills to build secure applications using industry best practices. This course directly aligns with the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and prepares learners for the Certified OWASP Security Fundamentals exam, a credential increasingly sought by hiring managers in compliance-heavy sectors like finance and healthcare. With over 70% of applications containing at least one security flaw during development, according to industry reports, this training addresses a critical gap in modern software delivery. It is ideal for professionals aiming to integrate security into the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and adopt a DevSecOps mindset.

Participants engage with key tools and frameworks including WebGoat, VulnCodeLab, Snyk, OWASP ZAP, Kali Linux, and Prometheus, gaining hands-on experience in identifying and mitigating real-world vulnerabilities. The lab environment leverages intentionally vulnerable applications such as WebGoat and WebWolf, allowing students to perform secure code reviews, conduct static and dynamic analysis, and simulate attacks in a controlled setting. During hands-on labs, learners configure HTTP security headers using Flask-Talisman, analyze code repositories for vulnerabilities, and securely manage secrets using Vault. A culminating project involves scanning a GitHub repository for security flaws, prioritizing them by severity, and implementing fixes—mirroring actual developer workflows in enterprise environments.

This App Security for Developers training prepares candidates for the APMG-International Certified OWASP Security Fundamentals certification, a globally recognized credential that validates core application security knowledge. Certified professionals report salary increases of 15–25%, with Application Security Engineers earning between $110,000 and $140,000 annually in the U.S. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning journey with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling, official courseware, and flexible 1-on-1 training options, ensuring personalized support. Graduates are positioned to advance into roles such as Security Champion or Secure Software Architect, leading secure development initiatives and contributing to resilient, threat-resistant software systems.
