As 2011 proved to be the year of the hack, the need for secure application coding is greater than ever. Application security requirements are heightening in the wake of critical application breaches, meaning knowledge and training must rise to ensure safe coding. Previously, attacks used application vulnerabilities to cause embarrassment and disruption.
