Lead Program Overview
A 6-week intensive bootcamp designed to transform software developers and sysadmins into proficient DevSecOps practitioners. Rather than treating security as an afterthought or manual bottleneck, this program teaches developers how to automate security gates (SAST, DAST, Secrets Scanning, Container Vulnerabilities) directly inside modern CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions & GitLab CI).
Every student works inside live cloud lab environments (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes) and leaves with a production-grade automated security pipeline in their public GitHub portfolio.
