What's Secure Coding Challenge
What Participants Say about this Coding Challenge
"I did learn <alot> about other languages that aren't as prevalent in my environment. It's always great to see from a Security point of view the strengths and weaknesses of each language. AppSec tends to wear various hats. The challenges were fun by pushing outside my normal boundaries."
- @ScottyGo, Security Engineer
"I had a lot of fun on this. I am looking forward to the next competition..."
