Security That Teams Actually Adopt—Not Just More Tools
Secure By Design Enablement (SBDE): Culture, Training, Gamification & DevSecOps Adoption
Security isn’t just tools—it’s a culture. Start Left® drives adoption by embedding training, culture, and accountability directly into every team. With gamified programs, upskilling, security champions, and built-in governance, turn security from a roadblock into a habit.
The Secure by Design
Framework—Executed
Secure by Design isn’t a single solution—it’s a holistic approach that integrates technology, automation, and governance to remove barriers and ensure security is executed consistently.
Start Left® enables all of this by seamlessly embedding security into development workflows, enforcing governance, and driving security adoption across teams.
Build on Secure Foundations
Use memory-safe programming, secure hardware, and trusted software components to eliminate vulnerabilities at the source.
Software Supply Chain Security
Gain full transparency with dynamic SBOMs, open-source risk management, and tamper-proof dependencies to prevent third-party threats.
Automated Security Testing
Integrate SAST, DAST, SCA, IaC scanning & CSPM directly into DevOps workflows to continuously validate security.
Proactive Risk Management
Enforce policy-driven governance, real-time risk scoring, and security automation to drive continuous improvement.
Built into Teams, Embedded,
Proven in Code: 3 Steps
01
Shift the Culture, Not Just the Tools
Security adoption fails when it's treated as a compliance requirement, not a cultural shift. Start Left® makes Secure by Design stick by aligning security with how developers work, instead of expecting them to adapt to security.
✅ Security as a Team Responsibility – Empower product teams to own security without disrupting delivery speed.
✅ Security Champions Program – Identify and reward security leaders within your development teams.
✅ Developer-Centric Training – Make security engaging and relevant with contextual, real-time learning.
Security succeeds when it’s embedded in culture—not just enforced with tools.
02
Gamified Learning: Security that Sticks
Traditional security training doesn’t scale—it’s passive, one-size-fits-all, forgettable, and disconnected from real-world development workflows. Start Left® ensures upskilling is meaningful, engaging, actionable, and embedded into every product team and developer’s daily work.
✅ Personalized & Just-in-Time – Auto-prescribed training based on real findings from SAST, SCA, and DAST scans.
✅ Gamified & Engaging – Leaderboards, challenges, and incentives keep developers invested in security improvement.
✅ Integrated into DevOps – Learning happens inside the workflow, not in separate security training portals.
Training only works if it stops security risks, not just checks a box.
03
Governance That Drives Adoption
Security governance must go beyond compliance—ensuring security is continuously executed and measured. Start Left® provides real-time, built-in governance, ensuring teams follow best practices without friction.
✅ Live Risk Scoring & Maturity Tracking – Go beyond checklists with continuous security performance insights.
✅ Policy-Driven Guardrails – Automate security enforcement across CI/CD pipelines without manual bottlenecks.
✅ Measurable Security Outcomes – Track MTTR (Mean Time to Remediation), security adoption rates, and overall maturity.
Security governance shouldn’t be a blocker—it should be an enabler
