On the other hand, the topic of security is gaining more and more gravity from the client\u2019s point of view. Safety continues to evolve into the top quality-feature of software systems.<\/p>\n<p>That is why the ISTQB has been offering a Certified Tester course since 2017, which is available in the German market since November 2018 through the German Testing Board. In terms of content, the security tester explores many ranges of safety without losing reference to testing.
