  • JWT validation lab highlighting clock skew and revocation gaps
  • CORS and CSRF decision tree for SPAs calling your APIs
  • Dependency scanning hook using OWASP Dependency-Check
  • Secrets management comparison worksheet (Vault, cloud KMS, plain env)
  • Incident tabletop on leaked refresh tokens
  • Mentor review of your threat model draft

Outcomes you can describe

Cohort questions

We discuss coordination with pentesters but do not perform live attacks on your systems.

High-level references to Japan APPI and contract clauses; not legal advice.

Binary reverse engineering, mobile attestation, and hardware HSM programming.
