Let’s be honest—security isn’t keeping pace.
AI is racing ahead. Cloud-native adoption is exploding. And yet, many teams are still stuck trying to patch broken pipelines with outdated AppSec playbooks.
Meanwhile, a quiet transformation is happening.
Since 2022, thousands of security engineers, DevOps leads, ML practitioners, and platform teams have trained with Practical DevSecOps—not just to pass exams, but to build real, production-grade security skills.
And now, with over 6,429 learners, 1,835 certifications issued, and professionals from organizations like a global investment giant, the largest arms manufacturer, a top 3 pharmaceutical company, a leading open-source platform, and a major Western air force—it’s clear: this is where the future of security is being built.

How Practical DevSecOps Became the Industry Standard
We didn’t start with a flashy launch. No VC funding. No hype. Just one big problem worth solving: Security training was broken.
It was passive. Vendor-locked. Outdated before it was even published.
So we built the opposite:
- Realistic, browser-based labs
- Vendor-neutral curriculum
- Practical certifications with 6–24 hour hands-on exams
Self-paced learning that actually fits around full-time jobs.
The result? Word spread. Fast.
We became the platform trusted by teams at a Fortune 10 financial services firm, a global cybersecurity consultancy, a European luxury automotive brand, one of the largest cloud-native software providers, a tier-one telecom conglomerate, a top federal defense agency, and a multinational beverage company.
They didn’t choose us for vanity badges. They chose us for reliability, depth, and results.
What the Growth Looks Like
Total lab hours logged: 189,503 hours.
That’s over 7,800 full days of real hands-on practice.
These aren’t passive video watches. These are full-stack DevSecOps pipelines being built, exploited, secured, and retested.
This is threat modeling being applied to actual architecture. This is Kubernetes clusters being hardened, LLM APIs being defended, CI/CD flows being patched mid-run.
That’s what real security readiness looks like in action. And it’s growing—fast.

Why AI Security Can’t Wait
AI is the new frontier—and it’s already under attack.
From model poisoning to prompt injection, insecure MLOps pipelines to LLM data leakage, AI systems are introducing risk faster than most security teams can react.
That’s exactly why we recently launched the Certified AI Security Professional (CAISP) — a first-of-its-kind certification built entirely around practical, hands-on AI security training.
This isn’t AI theory. You’ll get your hands dirty securing:
- LLM-powered applications
- AI data supply chains
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) setups
- Inference endpoints and model APIs
- MLOps toolchains and workflows
- Model exfiltration risks
- AI governance and compliance
CAISP was designed for security professionals, DevOps engineers, and even ML practitioners who want to go beyond whitepapers and actually defend AI systems in production.
If your organization is adopting GenAI or shipping ML pipelines—CAISP isn’t optional. It’s the new baseline.

Officially Listed on NICCS
Our parent company, Hysn Technologies Inc., is officially listed on the NICCS (National Initiative for Cybersecurity Careers and Studies) platform by CISA.
You can find our courses on the U.S. government’s recognized catalog of cybersecurity training providers:

This listing reflects the rigor, practical relevance, and government-trusted structure of our certifications. It also supports reimbursement and workforce development programs—especially for U.S. federal agencies, defense contractors, and public institutions.
Where Most Teams Fall Behind
Let’s call it out:
- Theory-heavy training with zero practice
- Certifications that “expire” every year unless you pay more
- Courses built for 2018’s infrastructure, not 2025’s
- Teams trained in silos—Dev, Sec, Ops, and now AI, with no shared playbook
Now compare that to what we offer:
- Up-to-date, modular curriculum
- Lifetime certification (no forced renewals)
- Training that unifies DevSecOps, AppSec, and AI Security realms
- Self-paced, browser-based labs that work for busy professionals
We’re not here to pad resumes. We’re here to build defenders.
