SLIDE 1: Introduction-A Secure Coding

TITLE: What is Secure Coding?

CONTENT

Definition: Secure coding means producing software with the intent to secure it from

vulnerabilities and attacks (Zeng & Zhu, 2021).

Why is it important: security exploits, data leakages, and software reliability increases?

SLIDE 2: Who is involved?

TITLE: Stakeholders in Secure Coding.

CONTENT

Developers: Developing secure code is their responsibility.

Security Analysts: Responsible for scanning the code for weaknesses.

Organizations: Embed secure coding into their strategy so that their assets remain secure.

SLIDE 3: The Reason Secure Coding is Important

TITLE: The Significance of the Secure Coding

CONTENT

It prevents sensitive data from getting compromised or exposed (such as private info, and

payment details).

Cut down costs incurred from dealing with addressing vulnerabilities in the post-deployment

phase.
3

User's confidence and other regulatory authorities' trust is enhanced (GDPR/HIPAA).

SLIDE 4: How to Ensure Security When Writing Code

TITLE: Few Ways to Ensure Security in Writing Code

CONTENT

Input Validation: Never assume that the user input is correct and always validate what comes

inside.

Security Libraries: When possible, use mature libraries that already address security problems.

Code Review: Code reviews should be more frequent than done with a focus on the prevention

of known weaknesses (Mdunyelwa, Van Niekerk, & Futcher, 2017).

Training and awareness: Encourage the developers to make good and secure coding sense.

Slide 5: Conclusion and a call to action.

Title: Conclusion & Next Steps.

Content

Summarize the importance of secure coding in the presence of the internet today.

Besides 'bring your code' aba'est appearing, ask the audience to perform safe coding in the

coding part of every development.

Point out where to get more information–e.g.: a set of rules from OWASP.

Visuals: An inspirational poster with a relevant theme regarding cybersecurity or teamwork.

Additional presentation recommendations:


4

Transitions & animations: More or less use animations on bullet points and transitions between

slides to create purposeful dynamics without irritating.

Sound: Possibly insert background music or sound effects during the transitions of slides, but

this should not distract the audience from the essence of the presentation.
