The huge proliferation of security vulnerability exploits, worms,
and viruses place an incredible drain on both cost and confidence
for manufacturers and consumers. The release of trustworthy code
requires a specific set of skills and techniques, but this
information is often dispersed and decentralized, encrypted in its
own jargon and terminology, and can take a colossal amount of time
and data mining to find. Written in simple, common terms, Testing
Code Security is a consolidated resource designed to teach
beginning and intermediate testers the software security concepts
needed to conduct relevant and effective tests. Answering the
questions pertinent to all testing procedures, the book considers
the differences in process between security testing and functional
testing, the creation of a security test plan, the benefits and
pitfalls of threat-modeling, and the identification of root
vulnerability problems and how to test for them. The book begins
with coverage of foundation concepts, the process of security test
planning, and the test pass. Offering real life examples, it
presents various vulnerabilities and attacks and explains the
testing techniques appropriate for each. It concludes with a
collection of background overviews on related topics to fill common
knowledge gaps. Filled with cases illustrating the most common
classes of security vulnerabilities, the book is written for all
testers working in any environment, and it gives extra insight to
threats particular to Microsoft Windows (R) platforms. Providing a
practical guide on how to carry out the task of security software
testing, Testing Code Security gives the reader the knowledge
needed to begin testing software security for any project and
become an integral part in the drive to produce better software
security and safety.
