How Netskope Reimagined Secure Code Education
The speed of innovation in cloud computing and AI is at an all time high. Global SASE leader Netskope helps organizations take advantage of it all while addressing evolving threats, new risks and technology shifts. However, these challenging dynamics have placed added pressures on the software development lifecycle.
Netskope’s Deputy CISO, James Robinson, has been at the forefront of finding ways to ensure his organization’s development team stays up to speed on new languages and technologies, but also keeps the team skilled on the ever-evolving security landscape. When he recognized that current training capabilities only addressed a handful of languages, it was obvious a better alternative was needed.
In working with Secure Code Warrior, they have built a program that makes security content visible and accessible to developers, so they won’t wander to unvetted solutions.The customizable content and myriad of hands-on learning activities from Secure Code Warrior has changed the game for Netskope, with a higher participation in SCW’s agile learning platform and the fact that these efforts no longer feel like they’re a check-the-box – but meaningful content and activations for the developer community.
What was their complete journey like and what have been the results thus far?
