Move beyond generating SBOMs to operating them at scale: treat the NTIA minimum elements as a testable specification, give every SBOM a stable identity and lifecycle, compute semantic diffs that reviewers and customers can act on, and enrich records with identifiers, vulnerability status and risk context without fabricating anything. Grounded in real SPDX 2.3 and CycloneDX 1.6 structures and in Portal's SBOM Repository, Compliance verification, Manage Repository and Audit Trails.
Nothing. Every course, exam, and certificate on the catalog is free — including retakes. All you need is a free Safeguard account.
None. The flagship course, Safeguard Certified Practitioner, is a beginner-level course — basic familiarity with how software is built helps, but every exam question is answerable from the lessons themselves.
You can retake it after a 24-hour cooldown, as many times as you need. Retakes are free, and each attempt draws a fresh random set of questions.
The Safeguard Certified Practitioner credential is valid for 24 months from issue. The expiry date is printed on the certificate and shown live on its public verification page. Renewing means passing the current exam again.
