Veracode Secure Coding Challenge Summary

The Call To Battle Secure Coding challenge brought together developers and security engineers two weeks ago to show off their secure coding skills. Using Veracode’s Security Labs Enterprise, all of the contestants worked on patching real OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities in containerized environments, using the languages of their choice. The more languages a competitor knows, the more points they can score. Out of the 18 fierce competitors, we had 9 who finished at the top of the leaderboard with 440 points, but it’s also not just about completing the labs and getting the points, it’s also about how fast you can solve each one. Thank you to everyone for being part of this event and congratulations to the winners!

1st place – Sam Long

2nd place – Matt B

3rd place – Sebastian Green-Husted

Thank you Veracode for hosting and sponsoring this battle!
