Tournaments

Build an expert community of security champions

Protect your code from vulnerabilities by building a strong, community-oriented culture of cyber security with highly engaging tournaments that evangelize secure coding while showcasing real-world vulnerabilities.

Build security skills and awareness the easy way

With Tournaments, kicking off your security awareness program couldn’t be easier – or more engaging. Players are presented with a series of coding challenges and missions and compete against each other to identify, locate, and fix vulnerabilities. All challenges are based on real code examples and are ranked from easy to fiendishly hard! It’s the perfect way to drive awareness and promote your AppSec program company-wide.
