With the increase in cybercrime and threat actors targeting web applications and software vulnerabilities as a route to exploit business, it's crucial to build security into new systems developments processes right from the start. Most successful cyber-attacks still depend on exploiting a few well-known common vulnerabilities. The Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) has recently released a valuable resource shedding light on the top 10 vulnerabilities that frequently plague large language model (LLM) applications. These vulnerabilities, such as prompt injections, data leakage, inadequate sandboxing, and unauthorized code execution, have the potential to significantly impact LLM systems and operations. This course, updated with the latest OWASP Top 10, will show you how security can be designed into, managed and maintained within a development lifecycle. Learn about the challenges of Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated software, and how to build security into AI systems at the outset.

There are no specific pre-requisites for this course.

Note: This course does not cover hands-on coding. Additional courses can be found in our Application Security and Secure Coding learning pathways.

Secure by Design Training Course in Norway

The Nordic country Norway, is in Northern Europe. Known for its stunning natural beauty, including fjords, mountains, and forests, Norway is also famous for its high standard of living and strong social welfare system. Norway's capital and largest city is Oslo. Tromsø, Bergen, Trondheim and Stavanger are the other tourist attracting cities of Norway.

Norway is a constitutional monarchy with King Harald V as the head of state. The country has a population of 5,425,270 as of January 2022. Norway is a relatively small country and has a relatively low population density, with much of its land area covered by forests, mountains, and fjords. Despite its small size, Norway is known for its rich cultural heritage, strong economy, and stunning natural beauty, which attracts millions of visitors every year. This Nordic country is also known for its winter sports, such as skiing and snowboarding, and is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Norway has a long history of invention and is home to numerous more top-tier tech firms and research facilities, such as; Kongsberg Gruppen, Telenor, Atea, Evry and Gjensidige Forsikring.

Due to the country's high latitude, there are large seasonal variations in daylight. From late May to late July, the sun never completely descends beneath the horizon. Which attracts many tourists around the world to see the "Land of the Midnight Sun". Tourists mainly visit Sognefjord, Norway's Largest Fjord, Pulpit Rock, one of the most photographed sites in Norway and of course the capital; Oslo.

Oslo is considered the business center of Norway. It is the country's largest city and the capital of Norway. The city is home to many of Norway's largest and most important companies, as well as several international organizations and research institutions. Additionally, the city is a popular tourist destination, known for its scenic location on the Oslo Fjord, its many museums and cultural attractions, and its vibrant nightlife and dining scene. Some of the most popular museums in Oslo are The Norwegian Museum of Cultural History, The Nobel Peace Center, The National Museum of Art, Architecture, and Design, The Munch Museum and The Vigeland Museum.
