Cybersecurity in Action! Testing for a Secure Digital Future
It is a reality that cyberattacks are increasing tremendously in the modern day, and it is a fact that most of them are directly related with the software code. Last year, the world experienced a 15% increase in CVEs, but now, in the same period in 2024, we are talking about a 40% increase! So, how can a software tester contribute in this harsh environment? Is it possible to prevent certain critical situations by simply raising the testing bar with Cybersecurity?
At this masterclass, a few recent media cyberattacks, that should be nowadays eradicated, will be reviewed and explained. It will be crucial to comprehend the primary risks and vulnerabilities to which our products will be exposed to during their lifetime, because “those who do not learn history are condemned to repeat it”. With all this information at hand, we are going to afford the following challenges: Quality and cybersecurity culture. Code analysis tools. Hands on! Break the code, solve some hacking labs Security test automation using ChatGPT as support tool CI: Github Actions Definitely, using these given tips and digging into the code, testing and development teams.
