Build a solid foundation in DevSecOps — shift security left, automate compliance, and integrate security across the SDLC. Every session is a live demo in a real lab environment — not slides, not theory. You watch the instructor build it, then you build it yourself.
By the end of DevSecOps-FC, you'll have shipped 12 production-grade artefacts and proven you can:
Design CI/CD for multi-service applications, with branching, gates, and progressive rollout.
Provision infrastructure as code across AWS, Azure, or GCP using Terraform — including drift control.
Automate configuration at scale with Ansible — idempotent playbooks, secret-free roles.
Run containers on Kubernetes — workloads, networking, autoscaling, observability.
Shift security left — SAST/DAST, SBOM, signed images, policy as code with OPA.
Operate SLOs — define error budgets, run incident response, write postmortems.
Every instructor has 15+ years operating production systems — our lead instructor, Rajesh Kumar, has 20.
We teach you to provision a production-grade environment on your own AWS/Azure/GCP. It's the same skill you'll use day one on the job — and it goes with you when you leave.
Every session is a live demonstration in a working lab — never slides, never theory. You watch the instructor build it in real time, then you build it yourself.
You leave with 12 GitHub-ready projects you can show in interviews tomorrow.
Every cohort is capped at 10 learners by design. That's how the instructor still answers your real production questions in week 4 — not just the rehearsed ones from week 1.

Each tool is taught as a working live demonstration inside a real lab environment — you see it built end-to-end before you build it yourself. The structure is identical for every tool, so you always know what's coming and what you'll have shipped by the end of the week.
Get the PDF syllabus with every tool, sub-topic, assignment brief, capstone spec and reading list.
Download syllabusEvery tool you learn ends in a graded capstone project. By the end of the program you'll have a full portfolio of production-grade, employer-show-able work — sample capstones below.
SonarQube + Semgrep integrated into a GitHub Actions pipeline with quality gates blocking on critical security findings.
Full ZAP scan against DVWA, systematic remediation of top five findings, and baseline scan added to staging pipeline.
CI pipeline generating SBOM with Syft, signing with Cosign, and blocking deployment on critical Trivy CVEs.
Scan and fix all HIGH/CRITICAL Checkov findings in a deliberately insecure Terraform project for AWS.
Harden a Kubernetes namespace with RBAC, Pod Security Admission, NetworkPolicies, and encrypted Secrets to pass CIS Level 2.
Deploy Falco on Kubernetes with custom MITRE ATT&CK-aligned rules and automated Slack alerting for runtime threats.
The DevSecOps-FC examination is intentionally not a memorisation contest. Open-book, scenario-driven, and proctored online — it tests whether you can solve real production problems with the toolchain you spent five weeks practising.
In a real on-call shift you look things up. The exam mirrors that. We test the skill that actually matters — composing what you know into a working solution under time pressure. Memorising flag syntax wouldn't make you a better engineer.
Clear the exam and you'll be issued the DevSecOps-FC digital certificate within 5 working days, with a verifiable credential ID on our public registry.
Rajesh is a working practitioner with 20 years across DevOps, SRE and Security, and an early-bird operator in MLOps and AIOps — he was already running model-deployment and telemetry-driven incident pipelines years before either term became industry vocabulary. He has held principal engineering and architect roles at PayPay, SoftwareAG, ServiceNow (Netherlands), JDA Software, Intuit, Adobe, IBM/Emptoris, Ness, MindTree and Accenture. He has personally trained engineers at JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Verizon, Nokia, World Bank, GE Healthcare, VMware, Citrix, Oracle, Qualcomm, Ericsson, Splunk, New Relic, Datadog, Airbus, AstraZeneca, Bosch, Mercedes-Benz, Vodafone, Deloitte, EY, Capgemini, Infosys, Cognizant, HCL, Wipro and dozens more. He teaches what he runs — not what he reads.

Not slides. Not a 500-seat MOOC. Not a temporary sandbox login. Three things make the difference — then compare us line-by-line.
Every session is the instructor screen-sharing a real working lab and building the thing in front of you — then you build it yourself. No PowerPoint, no "imagine if…".
We guide you through provisioning a free-tier AWS / Azure / GCP environment on day one — the same skill you'll use at work. A temporary sandbox login disappears the day the cohort ends. Your own lab doesn't.
Cohorts are capped at 10 by design. The instructor still knows your name in week 4 — and still has time to debug the weird production thing you brought from work.
