What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps organizations build, mature, and sustain a security program that integrates seamlessly with their engineering processes, addressing challenges in program development, maturity assessment, and security culture integration.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Maturity Assessment: Evaluate your current security program using frameworks like OWASP SAMM.
• Program Design: Plan and launch initiatives like Security Champions programs and security roadmaps.
• Culture Integration: Embed security awareness and practices across the engineering organization.
• Use Case: An engineering leader wants to understand how mature their current application security program is and needs a plan to improve it over the next year. This Skill can provide a SAMM assessment, identify gaps, and propose a phased roadmap.
