Actionable secure coding guidance in GitHub. Stop just finding security flaws. With Secure Code Warrior for GitHub, developers get contextual training right inside their GitHub workflows.

"Pairing integrations from Snyk and Secure Code Warrior with GitHub code scanning is a powerful combination that gives developers security information and education that is both insightful and actionable "

John Leon, VP of Business Development, GitHub.

GitHub is how people build software. Millions of individuals and organizations around the world use GitHub to discover, share and contribute to software—from games and experiments to popular frameworks and leading applications. Together, we're defining how software is built today.

When GitHub officially announced the general availability of GitHub code scanning, Secure Code Warrior was featured by GitHub as the only developer-centric training provider in their blog post, Third-Party Code Scanning Tools: Static Analysis & Developer Security Training. That's because Secure Code Warrior is uniquely positioned to support the new SARIF standard and integrate with other third-party scanning tools inside the GitHub code scanning ecosystem such as; Snyk, Checkmarx, Fortify On Demand, Synopsis and Veracode.

Our open approach to developer-centric learning empowers development and security teams to not just find vulnerabilities but enrich SAST reports with actionable knowledge. This provides developers with the skills and knowledge when they need it most, preventing vulnerabilities from occurring and reducing the need for rework.

Why GitHub?

Secure coding conversations
Training links are attached as comments in issues and pull requests so that the guidance is easily accessible when needed.
Highly relevant
Content is fetched based on Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) or Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) references identified in the issue or pull request title, body or labels.
Extensive coverage
Our learning resources for application security on GitHub come from the world's leading collection of secure coding training.
We've got you covered

Our integration with GitHub brings secure coding guidance where developers need it.

Scale remediation support

With guidance inside dev tools like GitHub, Application Security teams can provide remediation advice to all development teams in a timely manner.

Improve

Bite-sized learning

Ensure developers don’t just ship patches without understanding the cause. Learning in smaller chunks provides developers with targeted learning.

Retain knowledge

Reduce the time gap between learning and applying knowledge ensures lasting engagement and retention. Developers can grow their muscle memory to recognize common vulnerabilities from the start and truly shifting security to the left.

Actionable secure coding guidance in GitHub

SCW for GitHub adds contextual application security training material to SARIF files or directly within the issues and pull requests they are working on, giving developers access to knowledge when they need it most in order to help you ship quality code faster
