CHICAGO, Aug. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- NowSecure, the leading standards-based mobile app security and privacy software company, announced the immediate availability of a free online training resource for the mobile app community, NowSecure Academy. Now individuals and teams can upskill mobile developers with mobile app security coding best practices, earn certificates for learning development and security skills, and gain mobile appsec pen testing and hacking proficiency with the world's most effective mobile-focused app security courses.

Training developers and engineers on secure coding practices was the top success factor with highest impact on security and quality, as noted in the SANS Institute 2021 DevSecOps Survey. Yet most developers report that security training is sporadic or ineffective, if available at all. What's more, there are a myriad of training resources available for security analysts in web appsec and cloud security, but few resources focused specifically on mobile app security. NowSecure Academy was designed from the ground up to close this mobile security training gap as an online resource with self-paced training in expert-led courses covering mobile appdev and mobile appec best practices optimized for architects, developers, QA and security professionals.

NowSecure Academy delivers a broad suite of training courseware to upskill developers, QA, security, architecture and mobile teams with the knowledge and skills they need to deliver secure mobile apps faster

"As many organizations seek to speed up their mobile app development programs, the modern appsec skills gap holds them back," said NowSecure CEO Alan Snyder. "We recognize that the furthest one can shift left is into the mind of the developer, so we created NowSecure Academy in collaboration with our customers and the global appsec community. NowSecure Academy delivers a broad suite of training courseware to upskill developers, QA and security teams with the knowledge and skills they need to deliver secure mobile apps faster."

NowSecure Academy is free to join and has been developed in collaboration with leading mobile app architecture, development, security and DevSecOps teams leveraging industry standards such as OWASP and community best practices. The engaging courses are designed for rapid learning using proven best practices based on more than a decade of NowSecure experience in mobile app development, mobile security, mobile training and mobile pen testing of more than 10,000 mobile apps. NowSecure Academy includes:

  • Free mobile application security training for the community
  • Introductory and deep-dive topics in secure mobile development coding best practices, mobile appsec, mobile hacking, mobile pen testing, and more, with new material to be added regularly
  • Expert-led online mobile appsec courseware with certificates for developers and security analysts
  • Self-service training modules for NowSecure Products
  • Additional options for customized in-person and virtual security trainings

NowSecure Academy is a core component of the NowSecure Solution Suite — the world's most comprehensive suite for mobile app security including NowSecure Platform for continuous security testing in the development pipeline for DevSecOps, NowSecure Workstation kit for pen tester productivity, NowSecure Supply Chain Risk Management, and NowSecure Pen Testing Services. Built on a foundation of expertise, standards and automation, NowSecure empowers organizations to drive their success by delivering secure mobile apps faster and by continuously monitoring their mobile app supply chains for risk.
