Overview

The EC-Council Centre of Advanced Security Training has arrived at Firebrand Training. This three-day Advanced Application Security course is intensive, and focuses on combating attacks by improving your code-writing.

You will learn how to attack applications on the web, off-the-shelf binary applications and runtimes such as .NET, Java and Adobe AIR. This all takes place on a Virtual Machine, which you keep after the course.

Warning: This is not a beginner’s course. You'll spend 50% of the course in hands-on coding labs, so you must have some programming experience. The course is right for you if you're an: application developer, software programmer or pen tester.

Learn how to use these tools and techniques:

  • SSL compelled certificate injection
  • SSL renegotiation
  • CRL libraries
  • SQL root kits
  • XSS
  • 'Fuzzing' (most programmers aren't aware of this, but your code should be fuzzed!)

Note: this course doesn't include an exam, but you'll become Advanced Application Security certified.

9x Accredited Training Centre of the Year

Accredited Training Centre of the Year

Firebrand Training has again won the EC-Council Accredited Training Centre of the Year Award, from a Training Partner network that has more than 700 training centres across 107 countries. This extends a record-breaking run of successive awards to nine years.

Jay Bavisi, President of EC-Council said: “The annual EC-Council Awards highlights the commitment and achievements of our global partners and trainers that have contributed to the information security community.”

Seven reasons why you should sit your CAST AAS course with Firebrand Training

  1. You’ll be CAST AAS certified in just 3 days. With us, you’ll be CAST AAS trained in record time
  2. Our CAST AAS course is all-inclusive. A one-off fee covers all course materials, accommodation and meals. No hidden extras
  3. Pass CAST AAS first time or train again for free. This is our guarantee. We're sure you'll pass your CAST AAS course first time. But if you don’t, come back within a year, and only pay for accommodation. Everything else is free
  4. You’ll learn more CAST AAS. A day with a traditional training provider generally runs from 9am – 5pm, with a nice long break for lunch. With Firebrand Training you’ll get at least 12 hours/day quality learning time, with your instructor
  5. You’ll learn CAST AAS faster. Chances are, you’ll have a different learning style to those around you. We combine visual, auditory and tactile styles to deliver the material in a way that ensures you will learn faster and more easily
  6. You’ll be studying CAST AAS with the best. We have won the Learning and Performance Institute (LPI) "Training Company of the Year" a record three times. As well as winning many more awards, we’ve trained and certified 134561 professionals, and we’re partners with all of the big names in the business
  7. You'll do more than study CAST AAS courseware. We use labs, case studies and practice tests to make sure you can apply your new knowledge to the work environment. Our instructors use demonstrations and real-world experience to keep the day interesting and engaging
