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.
Starting from scratch on every OWASP engagement wastes hard-won insight
The situation this course is for
High-performing engineers like Ankit are expected to deliver secure applications quickly, but too often, the knowledge from one project doesn’t carry into the next. Without a system to capture and reuse artefacts, each audit, compliance cycle, or integration becomes a repeat effort, slowing velocity and diluting expertise.
Who this is for
Principal Applications Engineer shipping secure systems under tight compliance expectations
Who this is not for
Engineers who only implement without owning design, or those not involved in cross-project security delivery
What you walk away with
- A personal library of OWASP-aligned security artefacts that get reused across projects
- Faster audit readiness using proven, documented control mappings
- Reduced rework in security reviews by 40, 60% using standardized templates
- Increased influence in architecture discussions due to consistent, repeatable outputs
- Compounding efficiency: each delivery strengthens the next through asset reuse
