Training has improved secure coding skills and now empowers developers to fix issues faster
The kind of remediation that Codebashing trains developers on is outstanding, as it relates developers to real-life use cases. I would like to highlight the tournament feature of Codebashing as great, allowing us to organize competitions among skilled developers, which helps identify the best and most productive individuals in our organization. Codebashing's adaptive learning paths help us by addressing different use cases among our customers, as some follow OWASP Top 10 guidelines while others adhere to CWE, PCI DSS, or HIPAA. This means Codebashing helps us comply with these requirements so developers do not make mistakes when remediating issues found in the source code. I have a very clear example regarding the measurable impact Codebashing has had on our team's ability to identify security flaws early in development. One customer in the aviation sector had around 7.8 vulnerabilities in one thousand lines of code before implementing Checkmarx or Codebashing. After using Codebashing, we improved our mean time to remediation (MTTR) and reduced the defect count to 3.6 in one thousand lines of code.

Training has improved how I understand and fix real-world SQL code vulnerabilities
Regarding Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform's AI capabilities, I have not been looking into its governance and security. Since the last time I used it has been a while, I have not seen any AI features or capabilities in Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform. Regarding Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform's AI capabilities, I have not had a chance to use its accuracy and reliability of output features as of yet. My advice to others looking into using Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is that it is a good platform if you are looking to learn about the vulnerabilities in code and finding any problems. For those purposes, it is a good platform. I would rate this review as an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"In my opinion, the best features Codebashing offers are early vulnerability discovery, improved defensive coding habits, and catching what automated tests miss."
"The kind of remediation that Codebashing trains developers on is outstanding, as it relates developers to real-life use cases."
"This solution has an interactive approach that allows you to quickly receive basic knowledge about vulnerabilities and how they should be fixed."
"There are lots of great plugins available."
"From an academic point of view, Codebashing is a very good product because it is based on gamification. This is especially true if you don't have any idea about secure code training. It is one of the best tools in the world to learn secure coding. The product explains very well how vulnerabilities can be found and how programmers can develop securely."
"There's a lot of flexibility and there are a lot of configuration options."
"From an academic point of view, Codebashing is a very good product because it is based on gamification."
"To be honest, this is a very well-designed product, with the most essential competitive advantage being, as previously stated, gamification."
"From my perspective, I think Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is very useful for me as an Android developer."
"The best feature of Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is the learning aspect and the ability to take certification exams in all programming languages, which is especially valuable because some people write in C, some in C++, and others in Java, making it a challenge."
"Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform made the entire company more secure and compliant."
"Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform has positively impacted my organization by mandating it for everyone, which has led to a decline in identified vulnerabilities over time."
"Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform positively impacts my organization by providing organization-specific challenges that reproduce real internal vulnerability patterns, helping us make them seamless for large cohorts."
"The features of Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform are excellent, and the learning is so well managed through the set of questions that a user gains a proper understanding in the end."
"Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform has positively impacted my organization, as those who took the course are now building secure applications and have developed a comprehensive understanding of vulnerabilities, how to mitigate them, and how to secure applications, which is helping us build secure products for my company."
"When I was using Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform to understand and resolve SQL code vulnerabilities, I found the training scenarios to be really helpful and they helped me identify some of the vulnerabilities in my actual work."
 

Cons

"From my perspective, Codebashing might use some enhancement. Clients should be able to handle their tests directly according to their needs. That aspect of Codebashing is currently inflexible. Customers would wish to sign, compile, or manage their tests in accordance with their requirements. It is just not possible."
"It would be helpful if the solution included tests or exams that would allow you to study, for example, all Java vulnerabilities, and then afterward test your knowledge."
"This solution is not freeware and more expensive than similar products."
"If customers would be able to define their own quizzes or exams, it would be very good. That is the only missing part that I see - customer based scenarios, examinations and quizzes."
"This solution could be improved by offering an increased number of quizzes after each module. The GUI for this solution could also be updated to be more modern."
"I think the video content of Codebashing can be improved and should be updated regularly, as we currently see minimal updates in terms of real-time vulnerabilities."
"We would like to be able to add our own lessons to the platform because right now we can't add our own information."
"This solution is available for Windows only and does not have a Linux distribution."
"To improve Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform, I suggest adding more languages and more training scenarios."
"Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is very interactive; however, I suggest that videos could be added to make it even more engaging rather than text-heavy."
"Regarding needed improvements on Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform, I realized it was very technical and assumed users had some prior knowledge in web development."
"However, one drawback is that it does not map directly to our own code base, so developers may not connect with it in their daily life, but they will learn something about it."
"However, it is a really challenging platform, which is why I deducted two points, and it is also very text-oriented, so I think there can be more diagrams and photos."
"Additionally, there is a lack of customization options that can be provided for developers of each level."
"I have not personally dealt with customer service for Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform, but some of my friends have mentioned that the customer service is not good, with a little more delays and not that great of responses."
"To improve Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform, I would suggest implementing a more interactive learning experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would prefer it if their pricing would be a bit cheaper. This is not my personal comment, this is the comment of the market."
"Licenses are renewed annually."
"This solution is not freeware and more expensive than similar products."
"As a developer, though I am unaware of the cost of the solution, the product is expensive since I faced some trouble upgrading to Python for Codebashing."
