Building a

Security Champions Program

Within the framework of people, processes, and tools, managing the ‚people‘ aspect often proves the most challenging. In many organizations, communication and collaboration between security and development teams is limited, with the security team often becoming a bottleneck due to an overwhelming variety of security tasks. A security champions program aims to bridge the communication gap between the security team and the development teams, empowering the development teams to take ownership of the security of their own applications.

What we offer:

  • Program Structure and Objective Setting: We work with your stakeholders to define clear goals for the program, aligning them with your organization’s broader security strategy and ensuring measurable outcomes.

 

  • Security Champion Role Development and Training: Based on the program’s objectives, we clearly define the role, responsibilities, and required skill set for developers to become Security Champions, empowering them to be effective security advocates within their teams.

 

  • Onboarding and Engagement Strategy: We help you identify potential candidates with an interest for the field of security and guide them through a structured onboarding process, providing them with the knowledge they need to fulfill the role in the best way.

 

  • Program Evolution and Support Framework: Security is a continuous journey, and so is a security champions program. Through periodic reviews and feedback loops, we refine the program’s structure and content, ensuring it remains adaptive to emerging security trends and organizational needs.
