Learn about various security threats and modern approaches to deal with application's security incidents.

Cyber Security Fundamentals

This module is a comprehensive introduction to cyber security best practices. We’ll start with an overview of common threats and vulnerabilities and high-level concepts like privilege, integrity, logging, and mediation. With these concepts in mind, we’ll then learn common protection mechanisms and defense strategies, from endpoint protection to firewalls, gateways, and proxy servers. Next, we’ll learn monitoring and detection techniques, alerts, and event management. Finally, we’ll learn how to detect a threat and respond to it with support tickets, preserve data, and implement change management.

By the end of this module, we’ll have a better understanding of modern cyber security practices and a clear roadmap to implementing these as a developer.

Cyber Security Best Practices for Developers

## Overview

A risk-based approach may be the best way to clarify our goals as we move forward. Focus first on the risks to the organization. Once we come up with a list of risks, we can organize it by prioritizing different levels of severity, which helps us determine what we should focus on first.
 

## Risk gathering
 
Some questions to ask during the risk gathering process include:

- What are the biggest threats?

- What does the organization value most?

- What kind of attack would be the most damaging to the organization?
