Course Overview
Perceived as being difficult to fix in comparison to other programming languages Perl is commonly known as “the duct-tape of the Internet.” This general-purpose programming language is currently being used for a wide range of tasks as it takes the best features from other languages.
In this course, you will learn about best practices for secure scripting in Perl, features of Perl’s taint mode, handling errors in Perl, protecting files, preventing format string and injection vulnerabilities, using regular expressions carefully, and protecting sensitive data in transit with Transport Layer Security (TLS).
