- [Jerod] Hi, I'm Jerod Brennen and welcome to the introductory course in my Cert Prep series for the Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional Cert, better known as the CSSLP. If you're interested in learning about application security, you've come to the right place. ISC2 is one of the most well-known certification bodies in the Infosec space and their CISSP certification is the most popular cert in the industry. Where the CISSP focuses on a broad body of Infosec knowledge, ISC2 created the CSSLP to help security professionals vet their knowledge on application security, in particular. The CSSLP certification covers eight security domains that are directly relevant to application security. These domains cover everything from design considerations when planning to build your own apps to ensuring that any commercial or open source apps that you're bringing into your environment have been built securely. This particular course is here to introduce you to my series of eight domain specific CSSLP courses, here on LinkedIn Learning. When hiring managers are on the lookout for someone to help improve their organization's application security program the CSSLP cert will really stand out on a candidate's resume and I should know. In addition to the years I've spent performing application security assessments, application architecture assessments and application penetration tests I've also held multiple hiring manager roles throughout my career. My CSSLP cert prep series is built on a combination of classroom knowledge and practical examples from working in the field. And my goal is to help you do more than just pass the CSSLP exam. My goal is to help you accelerate your career in this space so you can make a measurable, positive impact on each and every organization lucky enough to hire you. Are you ready to begin learning about application security in the CSSLP certification? Good, let's get started.
