Code is a vital component in the operations of many businesses across Ireland. Coding skills play a crucial role in the economy, from information technology to science, engineering, and data analysis. Coders work in the leading technology companies that have established operations in Ireland and indigenous Irish software companies. Industries rise and fall as new technologies emerge, but there will always be new problems to solve, and developers will always be needed. Companies compete aggressively to hire talented coders who can help their businesses gain a competitive advantage. So, learning to code opens up many different career opportunities.

Secure Code Warrior is an innovative web-based corporate education and assessment platform where software developers use hands-on learning to build secure-coding skills. The firm has developed an online secure coding platform that helps developers think and act with a security mindset every day.

The company empowers developers to write secure code, achieving rapid improvements in security compliance and consistency, as well as a better quality and speed of code writing. The more the teams use their platform, the better they'll become at secure coding, and the less time and money will be spent finding and fixing bugs.
