[Baseline WG] Create Secure Software Development Labs in Collaboration with OpenSSF

Open david-a-wheeler opened this issue 6 months ago • 7 comments

Description: Create more hands-on labs for the free "Developing Secure Software" (LFD121) course

Impact: This will significantly help software developers learn how to develop secure software. 53% of software developers have never taken a course in how to develop secure software, and the percentage is much higher for new developers. The LFD121 course is highly rated by those who've taken it, but a common issue they raise is the need for hands-on labs so they can practice applying the ideas. This proposal helps resolve this.

Scope: Each lab takes less than 1 day to create. Any lab would be an improvement. We have 21 unassigned labs. There are 10 that are assigned but not done, and in a few cases I fear the assignee won't complete them (say 2-3 more). So the range of work is 1-24 labs, each < 1 day of work. The list of labs, current assignees, and instructions are here: https://best.openssf.org/labs/ Anyone interested should contact David A. Wheeler, dwheeler @ linuxfoundation DOT org.
