Our take
The cybersecurity market is going through a massive transformation as the nature of attacks grows more sophisticated, and the very infrastructure that companies build on becomes more complex to defend. Standing apart from other businesses addressing this, Secure Code Warrior does not offer security solutions, but instead allows systems to be implemented from the ground up through developers themselves.
This has proven to be a great idea, especially as companies have recently been much more open to online staff training, or upskilling. Secure Code Warrior’s platform is extremely popular, with teams at major companies like MasterCard, Reddit, the BBC, IKEA, and Zoom using it to train their developers to code in a secure manner.
Though the cybersecurity market is fiercely competitive, Secure Code Warrior appears to have found its place within it. In 2022 it joined GuidePoint Security's Emerging Cyber Vendor Program, which supports emerging cybersecurity vendors in expanding their federal footprint, and in 2023 it secured 50 million USD in funding to help further develop the platform and increase its market share.
