Avatao's approach to secure coding training
The Avatao platform immerses developers in high-profile cases and provides them with real, in-depth experience with challenging security breaches. Engineers learn to hack and patch the bugs themselves. The vendor states that in this way, Avatao equips software engineering teams with a security mindset that increases their capability to reduce risks and react to known vulnerabilities faster, and that this in turn increases the security capability of a company to ship high-quality products.
Topics
With 600+ challenges and tutorials in 10+ languages, the platform covers a range of security topics across the security stack from OWASP Top 10 to DevSecOps and Cryptography.

Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why
Avatao is one of the best platforms for new developers to have real-time scenarios to protect themselves from any potential security harms. A modern developed software, intuitive platform compiled of relevant up to date content which helps to build and maintain good development skills. It has all the best features that teach developers real-life scenarios on how to avoid common security fails in the development of software.
- It gives a lot of liberty to developers to do things according to their needs and requirements to check whether it is a good approach or not.
- I am using this tool for developing software and it has been a great platform for us in doing work especially.
- It is compiled of all the best tools and provides a real time exercises to check codes easily.
- Easy to use and user-friendly.
- [I feel] it needs to be more functional while integrating with other platforms. Not the biggest drawback but there is a need to add more languages to it like PHP, Go, and Scala which is also very much developed and used in the organization.
- [I believe] the support team needs to be more active and responsive while dealing with the customers.
- Customization of options.
- Dashboard is full of advanced functionalities.
- Gamification.
- It has been proved as a big find for me and my organization as well. It reduces my work and saves my time a lot which I in the past used to do by myself.
- I like the most that it allows me to touch real code, modify it according to the needs of my own and then compile all of that code into working applications. These exercises helping me a lot that I can convert multiple job rules so that service can be an integral part of a solid security program in development.
Avatao is playing a great role in providing fantastic services. The great feature that I like the most in Avatao that it does not support only one programming language, it ranges its security protocols from various programming languages like Python, java, C#, and C++. Avatao bot is also very helpful in simple operation as when you get stuck somewhere the bot can actually help and make you out of that easily.

All of our development teams have to complete some tasks on Avatao every couple of months. We use it to raise awareness about security and focus mainly on the OWASP top 10.
- Hands-on exercises. We are far from any type of simulation or static content; Avatao provides real applications to train with and focuses both on exploitation and code fixing.
- It is a great option for remote security training.
- The modules represent real-life issues, which is an advantage.
- They could implement Ruby in the exercises.
- Using the platform for us was a first step in teaching secure code best practices on a large scale.
- Implementing training increases overall security within the company.
- Our security culture evolves by doing trainings on a regular basis.
