[**WHY YOU AND YOUR ORGANIZATION SHOULD TAKE LFD121**](https://hubs.la/Q02Jsrd60)

Many software developers lack training in secure software development, with 53% of professionals never having taken a course on the topic, according to The Linux Foundation’s “Secure Software Development Education 2024 Survey.” This gap leaves many critical systems vulnerable to attacks, with financial systems being prime targets for both criminal organizations and nation-states. Verizon found in 2021 that 43% of security breaches are linked to insecure software development practices.

Our solution is the "Developing Secure Software" (LFD121) course, offering free, on-demand training on the fundamentals of secure development. Created by the Open Source Security Foundation under the Linux Foundation, this highly rated course is essential for anyone in software development. It’s an essential resource for improving software security. Take the course today.
