Threat Modelling and Secure Systems Architecture

Security bolted on at the end of a project is expensive and rarely effective. This course teaches architects and developers to anticipate attacks while a system is still on the drawing board. Participants learn structured threat modelling techniques and apply them to real designs so that controls are built in rather than patched later.
