Description

Regardless of how encompassing your software designs are, there’s always a possibility that vulnerabilities still exist in the software or new vulnerabilities will be discovered later in the software development lifecycle. In this course, you’ll learn different pre- and post-release activities to address these such as the pre-release testing process, completion criteria, risk acceptance practices, post-release plans, and independent testing options. You’ll also be introduced to installation and deployment controls that you can use to mitigate vulnerabilities such as bootstrapping, configuration management practices, and release management. Finally, this course will cover operations and maintenance best practices for managing vulnerabilities such as incident and problem management, change management, and software disposal planning and execution for end-of-phase iterations. This course is one of a series in the Algeo learning path that covers the objectives for the Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional or CSSLP exam.
