An Interactive 5-Day Training Course

Security Testing & Static Application Security Testing (SAST) Fundamentals

Identifying Vulnerabilities and Implementing Static Application Security Testing in CI/CD Environments

NASBA

Course Introduction

This Security Testing & Static Application Security Testing (SAST) Fundamentals training course provides professionals with the knowledge required to identify application security vulnerabilities and implement static application security testing practices. The training course focuses on understanding common security weaknesses, secure coding risks, and structured security validation approaches. Participants will learn how security testing supports software quality and reduces exposure to application threats. The training course explains how static application security testing identifies vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle. Emphasis is placed on detecting coding flaws, insecure configurations, and dependency risks. Participants will also understand how structured security testing strengthens application security posture and supports governance requirements.

The training course further develops skills in using SAST tools such as SonarQube to analyze source code and detect vulnerabilities. Participants will learn how to interpret findings, prioritize remediation, and integrate security testing into CI/CD pipelines. The training course also addresses OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and how to identify them using static analysis techniques. Participants will understand how to incorporate security testing into development workflows and improve collaboration between security and development teams. Additionally, the training course explains reporting approaches that support vulnerability management and continuous security improvement. By the end of the training course, participants will be equipped to implement foundational security testing using SAST tools.

This Security Testing & Static Application Security Testing (SAST) Fundamentals training course will highlight:

  • Understanding OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
  • Planning application security testing
  • Using SAST tools such as SonarQube
  • Interpreting static analysis results
  • Integrating SAST into CI/CD pipelines
