Scaling AppSec training with one of the global leader in the energy industry

‍

About the client

A global leader in the energy industry with over 100,000 employees, faced a familiar challenge: effectively scaling AppSec training across its large workforce. While instructor-led sessions garnered positive feedback, reaching every member of their diverse teams proved unsustainable.

AppSecEngineer offered a solution, to provide a platform that addressed the company’s specific needs and enabled a robust, measurable security training program.

Scaling security training

The company initially engaged AppSecEngineer for instructor-led training sessions. However, extending this approach to their large development and cloud operations teams proved impractical.

AppSecEngineer's platform was the ideal solution with a scalable and flexible way to deliver training content.

Our administrative panel helped the company’s security team leads and senior managers tailor training programs for specific roles and needs. They could group courses into customized assignments that catered to the distinct requirements of developers and cloud security personnel.

Development teams received language-specific assignments, while cloud operations personnel tackled cloud security-focused modules. Following these assignments, carefully curated challenges were assembled into tests, further reinforcing their acquired knowledge.

Beyond content delivery

Collaborating closely with AppSecEngineer's customer success team, the company established a quarterly learning roadmap punctuated by assessments. Having such a strategic approach helped them gauge user performance and adapt their training strategies accordingly.

The flexibility to administer and assess courses and tests empowered this global leader to build a robust security training program that was readily expandable across their diverse teams. This initiative showcases the company’s unwavering commitment to equipping its workforce with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape.
