In today's interconnected world, the security of software applications is paramount. Go (Golang) has rapidly gained popularity for its performance, concurrency, and simplicity, making it a powerful choice for building a wide range of applications. However, even the most robust languages can be vulnerable if not used with security in mind.

Through a combination of theoretical insights and hands-on coding examples, participants will learn how to identify, mitigate, and prevent security vulnerabilities specific to Go applications. We will cover critical areas such as input validation, secure API design, cryptography best practices, and common pitfalls to avoid, ensuring that developers can build Go applications with security baked in from the ground up.
