Page 11.792.9would like to apply more security tools to the development process. Code reviews could be en-hanced through the assistance of better static analysis tools with more instructor assistance. Thereare also a wide variety of web application security scanners, which offer features beyond the proxyand custom perl tools used in previous versions of the course. To address the issue of time constraints, we are creating a graduate class in secure softwareengineering. This class has both software engineering and information security prerequisites, al-lowing us to build upon a foundation of both security and software development skills. Graduatestudents also typically have a stronger mathematical background than undergraduates, opening
