You will then get hands-on with transport security by implementing SSL/TLS on an Amazon EC2 server instance. Lastly, we will tackle Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) attacks and learn to identify vulnerable NPM packages in your application. Every video in this course approaches a real-world problem, explains the reasons behind it, and guides you through solutions that you can implement easily.
