Since 2007 SektionEins has been organising trainings for various topics related to IT security. Our experts share their knowledge gained from every day security audits and internal research, refined with hands-on exercises and solid background knowledge.

This iOS security training is an introduction to possible security threats to your iOS applications and teaches how to minimize security risks already during the development of the application. Different attacks and their countermeasures, combined with safe programming guidelines will be discussed by means of a demo application. The target audience for this training course are iOS application developers from beginners to seasoned programmers.
