Teaching Secure Coding Practices to STEM Students
Hongmei Chi, Edward L. Jones, John Brown · 2013
Our experiences show that the earlier students learn secure coding concepts, even at the same time as they first learn to write code, the better they will continue using secure coding practices. In this paper, modules for teaching secure coding practices to STEM students are built and those modules are ready for most common programming courses for STEM students. Those modules will provide the essential and fundamental skills to programmers and application developers in secure programming. In addition, most of the modules will use static-analysis tools to help with detecting vulnerabilities in any given code. In addition, some survey's results are reposted here.
