So, as move into the security testing, first of all we look at two main types of testing: White Box testing and the black box testing.  We will next talk about security testing. The security […]

Previously, we looked at whether the system functions like it’s supposed to and now we’re going to be looking into more of the non functional testing aspects.  We are looking at answering such questions as […]

From the previous discussion, we’ve agreed that software generally is not secure.  Typically, rather than writing it for security, it is usually written for functionality. If security is dealt with at all, it’s  often handled […]

Since a good portion of this course has focused on the importance of security in our software and other applications that we develop in the overall process of the life cycle of the CPU and […]
