Hand-built implementation playbook

12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
SBOMs that get rejected or require rework delay releases and erode dev trust
The situation this course is for
Security teams produce SBOMs too late or in formats devs can't use. Dev teams generate incomplete SBOMs that fail audit. The back-and-forth stalls releases and creates friction.
Who this is for
Senior compliance or platform engineer embedded in software delivery, responsible for turning security policy into deployable artefacts without slowing innovation
Who this is not for
Entry-level analysts, pure security auditors with no delivery role, or leaders only focused on board-level reporting
What you walk away with
- Produce SBOMs that pass security review without revision
- Integrate SBOM generation directly into CI/CD with zero manual rework
- Reduce SBOM cycle time from days to hours
- Confidently apply NIST SSDF and OWASP SBOM guidelines in practice
- Own the handoff between policy and production as a first-mover advantage
