Falling behind on security expectations despite strong delivery records
The situation this course is for
Many senior program managers see their initiatives deprioritized when security concerns arise, not because of technical failure but because risk narratives aren't led by the program office.
Who this is for
Senior Program Manager in electronics manufacturing or embedded systems, responsible for end-to-end delivery of complex technical programs with compliance exposure
Who this is not for
Entry-level project coordinators or engineers focused solely on code-level security testing without program governance responsibility
What you walk away with
- Lead OWASP-driven initiatives with documented control mappings and stakeholder alignment
- Position your program as the default choice for high-visibility, security-sensitive projects
- Deliver audit-ready artefacts that reduce rework and accelerate sign-off
- Navigate vendor and third-party risk assessments with confidence
- Speak confidently in cross-functional reviews using standardized OWASP terminology and controls
