This course explores advanced development strategies and security practices in .NET 8, emphasizing code execution, cryptography, and secure application design. Professionals will understand how to build robust, high-performance applications that meet modern security standards. Learners will gain practical skills in dependency injection, containerization, unit testing, and creating custom LLM-based chat services. They will also learn integration and security testing methods, along with benchmarking techniques to ensure optimal application performance. What makes this course unique is the combination of theoretical knowledge with hands-on application, enabling learners to implement end-to-end testing, monitor dynamic code execution, and safeguard critical data effectively. Ideal for intermediate to advanced developers looking to enhance application security and performance, this course assumes familiarity with .NET 8 basics, coding concepts, and development workflows. This course is part two of a three-course Specialization designed to provide a comprehensive learning pathway in this subject area. While it delivers standalone value and practical skills, learners seeking a more integrated and in-depth progression may benefit from completing the full Specialization
