Upskilling, the missing link to close the security gap for AppSec
We continue to face an enormous shortfall in security-aware developers in the workforce. With cyber threats increasing globally and the recurrence of common vulnerabilities in our code, it’s crucial we obtain the skills to protect the software and critical infrastructure we rely on.
Rather than investing in more tools, is upskilling the answer?
Hear from Peter Robinson, Head of Security at Zip, and Jaap Singh, Co-Founder of Secure Code Warrior & AppSec Trainer for an insightful discussion on why upskilling cybersecurity skills within the workforce is essential to closing the security gap.
Discussion topics include:
- How equipped are organisations to upskill their cyber capabilities?
- With the rapid transition to remote working and digitalisation, how
important have application security become in the cybersecurity mix? - The importance of the human factor and ongoing training to minimise
security risks. - Standards and certifications: What to look for when recruiting security-

Trust Score Reveals the Value of Secure-by-Design Upskilling Initiatives
Our research has shown that secure code training works. Trust Score, using an algorithm drawing on more than 20 million learning data points from work by more than 250,000 learners at over 600 organizations, reveals its effectiveness in driving down vulnerabilities and how to make the initiative even more effective.

Reactive Versus Preventive Security: Prevention Is a Better Cure
The idea of bringing preventive security to legacy code and systems at the same time as newer applications can seem daunting, but a Secure-by-Design approach, enforced by upskilling developers, can apply security best practices to those systems. It’s the best chance many organizations have of improving their security postures.
The Benefits of Benchmarking Security Skills for Developers
The growing focus on secure code and Secure-by-Design principles requires developers to be trained in cybersecurity from the start of the SDLC, with tools like Secure Code Warrior’s Trust Score helping measure and improve their progress.
Driving Meaningful Success for Enterprise Secure-by-Design Initiatives
Our latest research paper, Benchmarking Security Skills: Streamlining Secure-by-Design in the Enterprise is the result of deep analysis of real Secure-by-Design initiatives at the enterprise level, and deriving best practice approaches based on data-driven findings.
