Course Description

Introduction to secure software engineering training covers the software engineering basics, and helps you to catch up with the recent developments toward software engineering. TONEX introduction to secure software training course helps you to understand a variety of topics in software engineering such as: software engineering process and metrics, real time, distributed, configurable and object oriented software. Moreover, you will learn about software system alignment, considering overall system design, aspects of software planning, requirements, software architecture, architecture analysis, software engineering constraints, and recent trends toward software engineering technology.

By taking the introduction to secure software engineering training training, you will understand the main concept of system software, computer software, application software and different programming languages used in computer software.

Learn about the difference between software engineering and computer engineering, software processes, computer aided software engineering technology, development processes for software engineering and extreme programming (XP). Also, you will learn about the principles of risk information system development process, classified approaches to design/test a process and different phases of development process. Moreover, you will be trained about the software architecture which is one of the main topics in system architecture. You will be introduced to client-server architecture, object brokers and layered systems. Learn about the software system design, software system developments, distributed software systems and their characteristics, configuration management in software system, software development process, software quality management and agile software system engineering.
