Save 45%, only on Sept. 12th!

Today, you can save on Spring Start Here, Second Edition by @laurspilca and other related titles: https://t.co/Pd4R4EXAnt

Learn the main ideas of Spring: configuration, beans, web endpoints, data access, and application structure.

[Laur Spilca @laurspilca]

@404Niels @ManningBooks If you just start with Spring I recommend you my Spring Start Here. If you already have some experience with it you can go for Spring Boot in Practice. But that is just for the start. Even APIs which look like a simple subject give a lot of opportunities to learn.

[Laur Spilca @laurspilca]

Thanks for letting me know @Uber Now I feel a lot more informed 😅

[Laur Spilca @laurspilca]

Hey Friends. If you watch my course on Pluralsight and you like it, remember to also give me a nice 🌟🌟🌟🌟 🌟 review 🤩

@agam001_ @ManningBooks Yea. Sometimes I have the horse by my side 😅🐎

[Manning Publications @ManningBooks]

Most security issues don't begin with an attacker.

They begin with a trusted input that shouldn't be trusted, permissions that are too broad, an exposed API, or a vulnerability introduced during development.

Today's Deal of the Day features four books on building security into your systems from the start:
• Software Security for Developers by @laurspilca
• Authorization in Action by @windley
• Secure APIs by @JoseHaroPeralta
• Grokking Web Application Security by Malcom McDonald

Explore what else is half off: https://t.co/ETBEtolGDT

[Potito Coluccelli @entangledev]

Software Security for Developers by @laurspilca & @asaikali one of the best books about security I read. Starts with the reasons behind security failures, then dives into crypto, TLS, OAuth2, K8s, and more. A must read for devs and beyond

@NickWilson73 @ManningBooks Happy to hear this. And yes, you are right. We should also think about a book designed at a higher level at some point to cover other subjects from ways of working to infra for example.

[Manning Publications @ManningBooks]

A lot of software education teaches developers how to make things work, but not always how to make them secure. That becomes a problem when vulnerabilities start with architecture, dependencies, config, or day-to-day coding decisions.

Software Security for Developers by @asaikali and @laurspilca covers practical secure development for modern cloud and Kubernetes environments.

Now in print and 50% off through May 29th: https://t.co/NuGeDVNeY9

Me, reading a contract for just another book 😅🤣

[Manning Publications @ManningBooks]

Building secure software isn't optional, but most resources bury what you actually need.

Software Security for Developers by @asaikali and @laurspilca focuses on using built-in security features in Java & Spring with no theory overload.

#GOTOpodcast: @laurspilca joins Thomas Vitale to break down Software Security for Developers.

*encoding vs hashing vs encryption
*rolling your own “quick” solution
*trusting AI-generated code
*skipping PKI and certificates because… yeah
