Security ownership stays siloed in technical teams while leaders miss opportunities to scale influence
The situation this course is for
Even experienced project leaders struggle to operationalize security frameworks beyond single teams. Without a structured way to lead OWASP implementation, impact remains local, and leadership signals stay undetected at enterprise level.
Who this is for
Senior project and operations leaders in regulated, distributed communication environments who are ready to scale influence through repeatable security execution
Who this is not for
Individual contributors without cross-team delivery responsibility or leaders seeking high-level overviews without implementation detail
What you walk away with
- Lead OWASP implementation with confidence across business units
- Replicate secure delivery models across regions without rework
- Shape secure development standards used by multiple teams
- Serve as the go-to leader for security rollouts beyond core projects
- Build a documented, extendable playbook for organization-wide adoption
