CYB 780. Software Security. 3 Credits.

This course emphasizes on both proactive and reactive measures and systematic evaluation techniques for identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities and potential flaws in software systems that could be exploited by malicious actors. The unit focuses on the examination of software structure and behavior, either by directly reviewing code or observing its execution in controlled environments such that vulnerabilities are caught early in the development lifecycle or during regular security assessments. The objective is to integrate security into the entire software development process, minimizing risks and enhancing the overall resilience of software systems against cyber threats.
