Awarded for completing Building Your Own Security Tool and passing its exam, demonstrating the ability to design, build, test, and responsibly release a small security tool from a narrow detection idea to a trusted, teammate-ready scanner.
Certificates are designed to be checked, not just displayed.
The credential is valid for 12 months from issue. Its public page states the expiry date, and renewing means passing the current exam again — so the credential always reflects the current material.
