Learn Spring Security - The Certification Class

The Certification Class

The canonical reference for securing a Spring application.

The 15 modules (+3 upcoming) cover everything from the basics of Spring Security in an MVC application to advanced use-cases such as understanding attack vectors, proper password storage and risks, API security with OAuth2 and full Java config.

In addition to the framework guides, we'll also do deep-dives into full working security implementations. We'll do a complete ACL implementation for applications that simply need to go beyond the roles and privileges.

We'll tackle Two-Factor Authentication to add extra security to our apps. We're going to drive that with a soft-token, a hardware token and finally with SMS.

And we'll do implementations of things like Multi-Tenancy, LDAP, Single Sign 0n and a variety of other scenarios

This is everything I wish I had access to when I secured my first application with Spring Security.

FAQ

Does the Certification Class include the other classes?

Yes, it does - it includes all modules. When you purchase this class, you'll get access to all the material in the Master Class.

What version of Spring Security is the course based on?

The code is using Spring Security 5 and Spring 5. I am also keeping a close eye on the official JIRA for any issues that may be relevant in the next version.

Will I have lifetime access to the class or is it just for a limited time?

Access never goes away. Once you purchase any class, you have access to it indefinitely. It does not expire, there is no time limit, and you can re-watch the lessons as much as you like.

How do I watch the lessons? Can I watch at my own pace?

Yes! When you purchase a class you’ll be enrolled in your course account and you'll have immediate access to all modules and lessons within.

Is Spring Boot a requirement?

No, not for the most part. There will be some Spring Boot specific lessons, but these will be extra and specifically marked.

The general approach is simple - you won't need Boot, but if you want to learn about it and use it, there will be plenty of Boot lessons as well.
