About This Project

Summary

Snyk Learn provides free, developer-first security education, empowering developers to write secure code from the start. We focus on practical, relevant content, including AI security, aligned with industry standards like NIST NICE and OWASP Top 10. Our strategy involves university and industry partnerships, student workshops, and continuous content updates. We also give learners access to Snyk for free, giving developers the ability to check their code and secure their applications.
