Understanding of security vulnerabilities and best practices
What do you like best about the product?
Its a fun and educational way to learn and practice coding skills. The hints and feedback provided are really helpful in guiding developers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The IDE is frustrating and sometimes the problems feel like they prioritize tricks over helping developers shift left on security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure Code Warrior solves the issue of code security practice by providing a platform where our developers learn and improve their skills. This has improved the security of our code.
My review of secure code warrior.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Secure code warrior offers intensive and interactive, gamified training modules to our engineers. This helps to expand our secure coding practices as a team , and makes it easier to remediate and identify potential security flaws present in our codebase. Secure code warrior provides code scanning functionalities , integrated into our
continuous integration and continuous development (CI/CD) framework, and providing quick, real-time code scanning remediation guidance of our software development workflow.
continuous integration and continuous development (CI/CD) framework, and providing quick, real-time code scanning remediation guidance of our software development workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
Implementing and using Secure code warrior is highly resource intensive. Since it requires a significant amount of dedicated time and effort from our engineers and software security teams. Also , I must mention that secure code warrior is unable to completely detect all security vulnerability , especially those related to specific programming languages and their development frameworks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure code Warrior has helped my organization to enhance the security of our software infrastructure, improve the skillset and efficiency of our engineers , and increase the trust and confidence of customers in our software applications.
SCW is a great platform for developers to learn about finding vulnerabilities and their resolution
What do you like best about the product?
The platform has different levels of assessments for certifications programs example white belt certification, yellow belt certification etc. which is similar to karate belts and it gets progressively difficult as the level of developer increases. The Platform provides multiple programming languages to learn and work on assessments to obtain the certification and the scenarios are very engaging. The training videos help explain the types of problems or security threats one can face.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a huge gap between the training videos and the expectation in solving the assessment. While it's easy to learn about security issues theoretically it gets trickier and hard to solve using the inbuilt IDE which does not have shortcuts to navigate files. It's just code, no comment or reference is provided to what the code does. Until you are a trained professional you have to keep exploring and make assumptions even for the white belt certification which is the basic level. The IDE is laggy. The IDE and the whole platform look jazzy and tempting at first but one starts to get confused after using it for a while.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure Code Warrior is helping organizations and developers learn about common vulnerabilities and exploits that they can avoid during the development phase of a product. Through their well known certification program, one gets to learn in a competitive online space with multiple programming language support.
Great place to learn writing good codes
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can choose from multiple programming languages. And moreover, I love the competition style that gets me motivated to complete the tutorials.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think they could have video tutorials explaining how to write secure code instead of just reading the tutorial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It teach me how to write secure code, and also teach every one on my team to be on the same page.
Very happy with a simple interface and quick positive results.
What do you like best about the product?
very simple platform, and we all noticed results very fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
If anything the interface is a bit dark?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us reduce the amount of vulnerabilities we release.
Increase the awareness in secure coding.
Making us secure code experts.

Intuitive and fun
What do you like best about the product?
It is extremely easy to pick up Secure Code Warrior and it's fun too. It feels like you're playing and game and before you know it, you're learning how to write secure code!
What do you dislike about the product?
Secure Code Warrior was not a good fit for Software Testers. However, this changed with Missions. Everyone I have spoken to, be it Developers or QAs, enjoys playing SCW Missions. I feel the platform could be improved further with Missions that were tailored toward black box penetration testing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure Code Warrior has helped to raise awareness of security vulnerabilities, educate how the vulnerabilities can be exploited, highlight the damage the exploitation can cause to a business, and show best practices to prevent the vulnerabilities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it.
A great way to frustrate your devs
What do you like best about the product?
The training videos were reasonable. The examples were clear. The assessments were nothing like them
What do you dislike about the product?
The assessment code was unintelligible at best. No comments, no context as to what a function or class is supposed to be doing. Constrained to a terrible online IDE with no quality-of-life functionality that would be used to review code (e.g. no control-click to take you to a class or variable definition)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's supposed to be helping developers shift-left on security. Instead, it's frustrating us with the terrible IDE and tricky for the sake of tricks questions
Really good platform for training developers on secure coding techniques.
What do you like best about the product?
The platform makes available interactive activities for developers so they can immediately test what they see during the course.
The support of the SCW team is precious. They're always available for advice and support.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in particular. It would be fine to have more flexibility in the management of the teams and the languages assigned to them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developers usually don't have security in their minds and SCW helps to build security awareness and security awareness means less security issues.
