Our Verdict

The Java Spring Security course by Trevor Page offers solid insights into adding security layers to Java web applications and configuring default settings. Although the content is a bit dated, and some advanced subjects such as JWTs, OAuth, social logins, and LDAP require further exploration, learners appreciate the engaging teaching style. Coverage of unit testing is minimal, which might discourage developers adhering to strict testing practices. Moreover, database setup aspects are not addressed, leading to initial confusion. Overall, the course provides a good starting point for learning Spring Security but requires supplementary resources to achieve complete mastery.
