Resources to learn secure coding? App Sec and Web Sec?
Here is a repo of some resources. You are going to need to learn to walk before you run so that at a concrete level you can articulate what secure vs insecure code is and why it matters, then dive into appsec. No disrespect intended but from the way this is written my suggestion would be to focus on computer science foundational concepts as well as spending significant time writing and reading code. This will likely be a several year journey if you are a total beginner but the best time to start is now :)
