The number of vulnerable systems with exploitable security defects has increased. This led to an increase in the demand for secure software systems. Software developers lack security experiences to design and build secure software, some even believe security is not their responsibility. Despite the increased need for teaching security and secure programming, security is not well integrated into the undergraduate computing curriculum and is only offered as part of a program or as an elective course. The aim of this project is to outline the importance of incorporating security and secure programming concepts in programming courses starting from the introductory courses. By evaluating the students' security consideration and knowledge regarding software security. As a result, based on the knowledge students lack regarding software security, security and secure programming concepts are identified which need to be integrated into the programming courses.
