🎯 What You'll Learn
- Identify common Java vulnerability classes
- Prevent injection and deserialization flaws
- Implement safe access control and crypto
- Review Java code for security
About This Workbook
This track focuses on building security into Java applications. You learn the vulnerability classes that hit Java/JVM systems hardest and how to prevent them through secure coding patterns, review, and testing.
Chapter 1 — Java Security Foundations
How Java apps get attacked.
- Trust boundaries
- Common JVM vuln classes
- Secure SDLC
Chapter 2 — Injection & Deserialization
The flaws that cause the worst Java breaches.
- SQL/command injection
- Unsafe deserialization
- Safe alternatives
Chapter 3 — Access Control & Crypto
Getting identity and secrets right.
- Authorisation patterns
- Correct cryptography
- Secret management
Chapter 4 — Review & Testing
Catching issues before release.
- Secure code review
- Static and dynamic testing
- Dependency security
Keep going. Work through each chapter in order, then apply what you learned in the matching labs.
