Hands-on AppSec-Pipeline
This fully packed hands-on coaching workshop gives insight into automation capabilities of security scans, which perfectly fit into many build pipelines. Taking into account frontends (Web) as well as backends (APIs), you will learn which steps of a security analysis can be automated – and how.
By focusing on open-source solutions, you will get a tool arsenal with different automation options ready to test your application’s security on every build. During this workshop we will enhance a typical CI/CD pipeline (every attendee will have an individual server in the cloud ready to use with multiple levels of tool integrations) step by step into a full-fledged awesome DevSecOps AppSecPipeline!
All exercises are executed against an attendee-individual training environment, which I prepare and individually spawn for each attendee in my cloud.
Individual Coaching vs. Workshop
I started conducting this training as a workshop, which used my individually prepared training application as test candidate, applying SAST and DAST scans (along with false-positive handling), as part of a Jenkins-based CI/CD build-pipeline. That way I was able to create a blueprint AppSec-Pipeline architecture as part of a great hands-on training.
But sometimes customers have other kinds of CI/CD setups or just want, as part of an in-house training, the whole concept directly applied to their individual real applications. Therefore I’ve shifted this workshop’s content a bit, so that it either still uses my blueprint setup with my training application, or (for the more individual customers) it takes your CI/CD infrastructure and your existing applications into account. With this kind of customization your attending team not only learns the generic concepts of a working DevSecOps solution, but also has this setup built up and running with your individual CI/CD piepline and applications.

What attendees will receive
All my trainings can be held in German (native speaker) or English (business fluent).
Attendees receive the following along with my training:
- Access to cloud-based training environments (individually spawned for each attendee).
- All slides and workshop material as a set of PDFs.
- Lifetime access to GitHub and DockerHub repos with my training environments in order to recap all exercises with a working setup (including freshly added stuff in the future).
- Support via mail for setup and exercise handling afterwards.
- Printed and signed Certificate of Attendance listing the training contents.
Different Options
As always in life, there is no one-fits-all solution. So regarding the concrete setup and execution of my trainings and workshops, you have different options and variants to choose from.
Fully customizable training agenda
In case you want certain aspects of your technology stack or specific internal process or tools covered during the training: Let’s talk
The training agenda can be customized to your needs, resulting in an individual setup and content.
On-site or Remote? – Choice is yours!
My trainings and workshops can be executed on-site (either directly at your office or at one of my training sites) as well as fully remote for home-office workers. Even hybrid variants are possible, where some remote-only workers can join online, while I execute the training on-site for the majority of the attendees.
I’ve already conducted numerous online-based variants of my trainings, even for bigger audience groups. In case you prefer an online-based variant, I can either use your corporate conferencing system to make it as seamless as possible for the attendees. Or you can access the conferencing solution that I prefer (after having tested many I’ve a nice excellent working solution ready) including live-editing of shared whiteboards for workshop exercises.
Either way, attendees just need a browser as nothing needs to be installed locally, since my training runs with attendee-individual environments in my cloud.
Alternative option: Professional training recording
In case you would like to have a customized version for your company recorded as a set of chapters and lessons for your in-house video-based electronic learning platform: Let’s talk
I can record a customized training session (without attendees) and provide you with professionally cut chapters exported as SCORM, MPEG, and other formats. This package includes digital training slides and the runnable training environment for local offline training. If you and all attendees prefer to record a live training while being held, this is also possible and would produce a video handout of the full course for recapping material afterwards.
That way several companies have successfully enriched their own internal video-based training offers with my hands-on security workshops imported into their own electronic learning platforms.
