With the Security Champion Training, the Fraunhofer IEM Academy has designed an advanced training programme for software developers who want to become experts in the field of secure software development. The training is based on the results of the AppSecure.nrw software security study published by Fraunhofer IEM.

The Security Champion Training therefore teaches essential basics and provides employees with comprehensive training on security issues.
In around 100 hours of training, the participants from adesso mobile solutions dealt with relevant security laws and standards, learnt about the principles of security by design, defence coding, methods of applied cryptography and automatic and manual code reviews.
