The Immersive Labs platform has genuinely been a fun, engaging, and educational addition to the ongoing training of our department and it's team members. Assigning specific learning tracks, as well as being able to select multiple different areas of interest, allows the user to build on the base of knowledge they already have, as well as reinforce practiced skills. With an easy to use GUI, fast and attentive support staff, Immersive Labs has proven itself to be a leader in the continued education of IT professionals.

SCW's output of content has landed extremely well with the target audience of developers in scope of secure code training. Feedback we've collected has noted it is a massive improvement over previous training regiments.

Excellent, we have used Veracode for our code scanning, and it turned out highly valuable. We were to scan almost all the code bases and find vulnerabilities based on CVE scores. Which has potentially enabled us to increase TTM significantly and we were also able to enable a security approach for the projects. Initially without the training it took us 5 weeks to deliver a code after completing the security audits, but with Secure code training we were able to reduce it initially to 4 weeks and then to 2 weeks. Now the team understands the need of secure coding Our primary deployment objective in implementing Veracode secure code training was to cultivate a robust security first culture within our development team. With aims to enhance their knowledge on secure coding practices, reduction in vulnerabilities and ultimately improve the overall security posture of the organization. After implementing Vercode Secure code training, we have noticed a significant increase in secure coding awareness among our developers and product owners. The ability to understand their knowledge gaps in secure coding and self paced learning has really helped the team in moving towards security first. Quantifying the ROI will be a challenge but we have seen a significant reduction in vulnerabilities during the application security testing phase. This directly translates to cost saving considering the efforts we may need to put towards remediation and potential security incidents. I would like to highlight beyond the cost saving veracode has cleared boosted the confidence of developers thus by increasing their productivity. Platforms flexibility and scalability has makes it suitable for all sorts of organization from small to big, especially if you want to move towards security first.

Team have been extremely helpful in providing an effective strategy to encourage engagement with the platform. As a result of using SecureFlag, we've been able to collect useful information on areas our developers are struggling with and are using that to empower our training sessions for next year. Our regular catch ups, and notification configurations have allowed me as an admin to tailor my approach to championing security e.g. Setting up slack channels, visible leaderboards, and trivia. So far we have run a tournament and a demo session which has received amazing feedback

Synopsys Application Security is a powerful tool for identifying and mitigating software vulnerabilities, offering comprehensive coverage and deep integration capabilities, though it comes with a learning curve and a higher cost. Synopsys also has a strong community and ecosystem, with extensive resources, user forums, and training programs available for anyone to be involved in. Thus, there are far more advantages than the disadvantages getting involved with Synopsys products.

My overall experience with this tool was really good. There are real-world scenarios of how unsecure code can pull down the construction of the code. It is well scalable to developers as well as large teams. There are some challenging exercises on it but it just makes it better for the user.

Well done videos with transcripts easily accessible for better learning/accessibility issues. Learning paths are created based on your needs and weaknesses assessed in a test before, as well as during the learning paths with quizes you are completing.

We generally have a positive experience, enabling continuous education and improving secure code practices, as well as a proactive, secure code mindset.
