  1. Software SecurityLecture 0 Fang Yu Dept. of MIS National Chengchi University Spring 2011

  2. Software Security Instructor: Fang Yu Office: 150409 Weekly Meeting on Tuesday 9:00-12:00

  3. Errors and Failures Software is developed by humans, and hence it is not perfect A human error may introduce a bug in the system When a bug get triggered, it may generate a failure

  4. Security Bugs and Failures A security bug is also called a vulnerability When a vulnerability get triggered (exploited), it may generate a security failure (against the security policy) and compromise the system

  5. Security Analysis Security analysis is the process to determine the security posture of a system It answers the question: is the system vulnerable with respect to the known vulnerabilities?

  6. About this course • We will focus on Web application security and static analysis techniques • You will • Learn how to identify and detect vulnerabilities in web applications • Learn how to exploit vulnerabilities in web applications • Learn how to remove vulnerabilitiesand how to prevent exploits of vulnerabilities in web applications

  7. Main topics • Web Application Security (8-10 weeks) • What are the most common vulnerabilities in web applications? • Common Vulnerability and Exposure • OWASP • Static Analysis Techniques (2-4 weeks) • (Automatic) Code Review • Taint analysis • String analysis • Advance Issues/Techniques/Tools (3-5 weeks) • Selected Papers/Tools

  8. Text books • The Web Application Hacker's Handbook: Discovering and Exploiting Security Flaws. • By DafyddStuttard and Marcus Pinto, Wiley Publishing, Inc, 2007 • 全華圖書 02-22625666 • Secure Programming with Static Analysis. • By Brain Chess and Jacob West, Addison-Wesley Professional, 2007
