What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

They provide a lot of practical labs and challenging exercises for almost every skill, tech, etc. They provide learning paths and courses ranging from fundamental concepts to advanced areas like AI security, offering learning resources for every skill level. The course content is regularly updated with new modules & paths. The platform provides with shareable-verifiable badges and achievements to market learners' newly learnt skills. Small challenges, badges and even hints, keeps the learner motivated throughout the learning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

No options for configuring playback speed or other video settings on the user profile level, which can be inconvenient for learners with specific preferences forcing users to change video settings for every video. Also, the vast array of topics might feel a bit overwhelming. Better advertisements for learning paths is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hands-on trainings on industry relevant topics and skills. Practical-based learning methodology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

To me, the strongest point of AppSecEngineer lies in its capacity to address both points of view : attackers and defenders. The amount of exercises is covering a wide range of vulnerabilities and corrections, and the diversity of programming languages makes it particularly appropriate for companies using multiple languages daily.

The platform also proposes different types of exercises (courses, journeys, challenges) which can fit almost any security profile, from beginners to advanced users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

The platform is still young, so sometimes, you might encounter a small bug in the UI.

But this is clearly something they're working on as they tend to disappear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

A huge library of guided learning paths making it easy to pick up and go whether you're a developer, a security engineer, or even in devops.

I had quite the positive experience with my Kubernetes journey, from beginner to deploying complex network manifests from a security perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

Some of the labs are starting to show their age. However, the support is quite quick in helping resolve and upgrade any such dependencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Security is a nebulous end goal; AppSecEngineer allowed me to break it down into easy chunks, rewarded completions, and ensured I had hands-on learning the whole way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from AppSec Engineer of AppSecEngineer

Thank you for your kind words! We're glad to hear that our guided learning paths have been helpful for your Kubernetes journey. We understand your concern about aging labs and are committed to addressing and upgrading any outdated content. We appreciate your support and feedback!

What do you like best about AppSecEngineer?

The information is conveyed very clearly and easy to understand. As a security engineer taking my first steps into devsecops, they have training that's exactly what I'm looking for (it's right there in the name, too, so my expectations were met), but I'm sure it's useful for developers and IT operations personnel as well. I'm still taking the beginner trainings, but there are topics for a range of experience levels. There is support available with a chat function that connected me with a human who resolved an issue I had very promptly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AppSecEngineer?

I haven't had a negative experience yet. The UI is a little no frills, but who needs frills? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AppSecEngineer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm at the very beginner level of application security coming from other security areas, so it's very helpful to me in understanding the "buzzwords" of shift left, etc. and understanding at a practical level how security gets included in the pipeline without necessarily just being a gate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from AppSec Engineer of AppSecEngineer

We're thrilled to hear that you found our training clear and easy to understand. It's great to know that our content is meeting your expectations and providing the support you need as you transition into devsecops. Thank you for your positive feedback!
