For the past few weeks and the foreseeable future, COVID-19 has forced organizations around the world to adopt work from home models. This can be a difficult transition, impacting productivity, workflows, and overall cybersecurity. And, with software development teams now “developing from home,” and in some cases being asked to meet even more aggressive delivery timelines, organizations may need to look at new ways to ensure the security of the software they develop.
Checkmarx is here to help.

How it Works
With the full Codebashing offering, AppSec managers are able to cultivate a culture of software security that empowers developers to think and act securely in their day-to-day work. Organizations can engage their remote development teams to participate in:- Gamified Training – Developers take online, gamified training courses while learning and coding from home.
- Team Challenges – Add a spirit of competition by running challenges that test developers’ AppSec knowledge. Developers will go head-to-head with one another to move up the leaderboard.
- Assessments – With everyone working from home, it’s the perfect time to understand where each developer stands when it comes to their AppSec skills.
