The CISSP certification is the gold standard for IT security certifications, with over 120,000 open CISSP jobs in the US, and an average CISSP salary in the US of over $125,000.
The exam covers eight domains; in this course, we will be covering Domain 8, with respect to the May 2021 exam update. This course focuses on how we secure software as we develop it.
In Domain 8, we will understand and integrate security in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), then identify and apply security controls in software development ecosystems. Post that, we will assess the effectiveness of software security and cover the security impact of acquired software. Then we will define and apply secure coding guidelines and standards.
We will also cover OWASP top 10 as per 2021 and other software vulnerabilities, different software development maturity models, third-party software security, and AI (Artificial Intelligence). The course also includes 30 practice questions to test our learning from the course.
By the end of this course, you will be prepared for Domain 8 of the CISSP exam.
