Over the span of the Application Security course, I have gained immense knowledge and skills in various areas of Information security, access control, security administration, encryption, Risk management and assessment, Incident response and Disaster recovery planning. After carefully analyzing the information gained through the lectures and the assignments assigned weekly made me profound in the subject and gave me a break through to apply the knowledge and skills mastered in my course for my work environment. I have put all my efforts for applying these skills as a Validation Engineer.
As a Validation Engineer my responsibilities also includes document control and transfer data/reports in a secure way. Data base privacy and security gave me knowledge in protecting the database Project Information Management System (PIMS) used for validation database for transfer of information and test summary reports through various platforms in my work environment.
By applying the data base privacy and security I am able to get tremendous changes in my work as PIMS admin. As a PIMS admin to protect information accessed by various team members, access control and authentication topics from this course gave me good knowledge to create secure authentication. By this, database can only be accessed by the person who has specific user credentials registered according to my organization safe access policy and additionally I created filters for data access limit so that employees can access information based on their position requirements.
