Gamified training has improved secure web coding and now highlights needs in AI and deeper content
Pros and Cons
  • "Using the OWASP learning, I can see that in our company, the amount of vulnerable code we have has decreased by at least thirty percent from the start because most people when they start writing and developing code do not have much background on the secure aspects."
  • "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."

What is our primary use case?

My main use case for Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is to understand the security fundamentals in web development. We were developing websites in Django and Python, and while using Secure Code Warrior, we checked different kinds of vulnerabilities. We saw use cases where we had vulnerable code that we needed to find and then fix. We completed this through tournaments, exercises, and mini-courses.

Secure Code Warrior also offers many side courses or side quests, which are enjoyable. There are many cryptography courses and penetration testing courses that help a lot with the fundamentals for anyone working in software development to understand multiple different perspectives and topics. Even if someone is not fully working in a particular area, they would need at least some surface understanding of it. Secure Code Warrior does provide that much.

How has it helped my organization?

Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform has positively impacted my organization and my learning experience because my colleagues and I were able to build specific knowledge in particular parts of the secure development processes. In our company, we mainly deal with web development and related topics. Through Secure Code Warrior, we specialize our own tasks, courses, assignments, and tournaments to always be directed towards either OWASP Top 10 vulnerable code or related matters, which helps us code more securely and write better code and find vulnerabilities before we launch that code.

Using the OWASP learning, I can see that in our company, the amount of vulnerable code we have has decreased by at least thirty percent from the start because most people when they start writing and developing code do not have much background on the secure aspects. However, Secure Code Warrior quickly reduces that and increases the security of the code by almost around thirty percent from the beginning.

What is most valuable?

What I appreciate about the tournaments and exercises is that they make learning more like a game. I compete with other people taking the course or working with me on the same projects, which creates a competition spirit between everyone. Finding the vulnerabilities is valuable because I can usually see the entire code for white-box assessments. I can see the entire code in front of me and make comparisons between different sections. I can see things that are vulnerable and even try to find what is not vulnerable and make comparisons. This helps me understand exactly what is going on and builds a much faster understanding of how secure code is supposed to look.

The best features that Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform offers are how I can see the vulnerable code. I can read it line by line, and it gives me a chance to recheck my answers to ensure I am actually doing it correctly. Other useful features are the videos it provides. It has mini-courses with pretty short videos, which are helpful because if I am working on a different project, having short videos is beneficial so I would not have to put too much time into listening to the mini-courses or doing Secure Code Warrior tasks and neglect my main job.

Those short videos and the ability to recheck my answers impact my learning experience effectively because they usually give me certain topics and then ask a couple of questions about those topics, which is very good because it builds my understanding and ensures that I understand what I just listened to in that video. Usually, those videos relate to the specific task or project that I am working on, and my team leader or PM chooses those tasks or videos for me. The way it also makes it effective is by letting me look at the answers and see multiple options, allowing me to build a more comprehensive idea of what the solution could be. I can also see vulnerable codes from multiple perspectives, so if I have one solution that is correct, I can see that I have three other vulnerabilities showcasing the same kind of vulnerability but through different perspectives, which helps me see more examples. This will help me later in real-life scenarios when I encounter similar situations so I can apply what I have learned.

Some of the other cool features that I can find in Secure Code Warrior are the certificates. They are a minor aspect, but I can use those certificates and probably add them to my LinkedIn or CV to boost my profile. However, if I am looking into some other security certificates, it would be better to pursue specialized certificates rather than just sticking to Secure Code Warrior certificates.

What needs improvement?

I believe Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is missing the ability to keep up with new things coming up. Currently, there is a lot of AI usage in the market, which brings new kinds of vulnerabilities and highlights the need for focusing on how to handle these AIs, as we cannot completely ban the use of AI in developing websites and other projects. Secure Code Warrior would benefit a lot from adding tasks or core exercises where we can try to utilize AI and LLMs securely in coding other projects.

I also think some of the videos can be a bit more diverse. They feel a bit too similar, so for one topic, there are three or four videos. Perhaps those can be decreased or they can go into more detail. Some of the content stays on the surface level, where it could go into much more detail, which I might understand, but I think some companies would happily want something like this. Additionally, maybe a specification metric could be added where people subscribing to one of those courses can choose how much detail the course would go into.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform for about a full semester, spanning six months. We did some tournaments and some hands-on experience with certifications and exercises.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

In my experience, Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is pretty stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Regarding its scalability, I find it pretty good because I can have as many members as I want from the company registered on that platform. I can even have it specialized per team leader or project manager. The project manager can manage their own teams and assign related tasks or detailed and specific tasks that would fit better than any of the other options.

How are customer service and support?

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.

What other advice do I have?

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform around seven. I give it a seven out of ten because it actually does something that a lot of companies do training for their employees in a more automated and gamified way, which is nice. However, in some cases, when you have an automated process, you miss a lot of other minor details that are mostly personalized cases for some employees or specific to a particular company, which decreases the rating by about two points. Additionally, some of the questions in Secure Code Warrior database are a bit too repetitive, allowing you to guess the answer without genuinely knowing the meaning behind the question.

My advice for others looking into using Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is to ensure that there is a specific need they are trying to fulfill. The team should have a specific deficiency in understanding the secure coding principles. They would use that subscription to provide extracurricular teachings that the team has to complete so when they start working on any of their projects, it will be beneficial and build a good understanding of what specifically they need to fix to avoid any problems in the future. Therefore, ensure that you actually have a need for it and also choose the correct courses because there is a lot of variety on the website, given that secure coding encompasses many topics. My overall rating for Secure Code Warrior Learning Platform is seven out of ten.
