Certified Secure Software Engineer (C|SSD)

About this course

The Certified Secure Software Engineer (C|SSD) course is a CICRA Campus short course that trains software developers to build security into every stage of the software development life cycle. The programme page says it was developed to close a skills gap in secure software development in Sri Lanka, and that completing the final stage leads to a Certified Secure Software Developer certification from SLASSCOM. The course is delivered in three levels, each of 14 hours over seven two-hour sessions, with two sessions a week and an assignment issued after the seventh session; the total is 52 hours per the page's headline.
