  • How the browser security model works, including sandboxing, the same-origin policy, and methods of securing cookies
  • Securing web servers with input validation, escaping of output, and defense in depth
  • A development process that prevents security bugs
  • Protecting yourself from browser vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, and clickjacking
  • Network vulnerabilities like man-in-the-middle attacks, SSL-stripping, and DNS poisoning
  • Preventing authentication vulnerabilities that allow brute forcing of credentials by using single sign-on or multi-factor authentication
  • Authorization vulnerabilities like broken access control and session jacking
