12 modules. 12 chapters per module. 144 chapters total.
12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
Spending too much time aligning security controls with client risk appetites instead of leading the conversation

The situation this course is for

Even senior identity practitioners find themselves reacting to security findings rather than shaping the initial design. The gap isn't knowledge, it's structured authority in translating OWASP to client-specific identity architectures. Without a consistent framework, every engagement becomes a negotiation, not a leadership moment.

Who this is for

Senior digital identity consultant or architect in global systems integration, advising on secure identity frameworks with exposure to financial, healthcare, or regulated tech clients

Who this is not for

Individual contributors focused only on implementation, entry-level identity staff, or practitioners not involved in architecture or client advisory

What you walk away with

  • Lead client discussions on identity security with structured OWASP-aligned frameworks
  • Produce reusable control mappings that accelerate future engagements
  • Anticipate regulator or auditor follow-ups on identity design choices
  • Differentiate advisory input with documented, defensible architecture rationale
  • Turn OWASP guidance into client-ready narratives, not technical checklists
