OWASP Top 10, Java Secure Coding Follow Up Training in Malta

  • Learn via: Classroom
  • Duration: 1 Day
  • Price: Please contact for booking options
We can host this training at your preferred location. Contact us!

This course is the next step for our participants, who completed our OWASP Top 10, Java Secure Coding Fundamentals course. This is a follow up training, meaning that in order to attend this, everyone must already have the knowledge that is covered in the Fundamentals.

This course enables our participants to gain a deeper knowledge in the field, because here we emphasize the Java-specific aspects of secure coding instead of the general vulnerabilities.

At the end of the training everyone has the possibility to take an exam, where they are able to measure their level of the gained knowledge.

OWASP Top 10, Java Secure Coding Follow Up Training Course in Malta

Officially known as the Republic of Malta, is an island country in the Mediterranean Sea, South of Sicily. While Malta being the world's tenth smallest country in area and fourth most densely populated sovereign country, the capital city of the island country is Valletta. Malta consists of three islands: Malta, Gozo, and Comino and Malta is the largest island among all. The official languages of Malta are Maltese and English and based on the data from 2019, the population is about 514,564.

Winter season in Malta is delightfully mild, with temperatures above 12 degrees, so it makes the Maltese Islands a perfect year-round destination. But tourists usually prefer traveling to Malta either in April, May or June. Since in those months, Malta is warm without being too hot. In the early Spring season, travelers may also enjoy the glorious wildflower season.

Enhance your IT skills with our comprehensive array of courses, spanning programming, software development, data science, and project management. Benefit from the convenience of choosing your preferred location in Malta as our experienced instructors deliver interactive training and real-world insights.
