Security for Startups

Build security into a new company and its product from the first hire, without slowing it down.

Startups move fast, and security is easy to postpone until a customer, an investor or an attacker forces the issue. Getting the foundations right early costs far less than fixing them later. This course shows founders and early teams which foundations matter and how to lay them without slowing down.

Who it is for

Founders, technical co-founders and early engineering teams. No security background is needed.
