Scanning treated as a standing property of the estate rather than a one-time event. You will map the five triggers that should invalidate an inventory, push, schedule, new advisory, new artefact and environmental drift, learn when to run an incremental scan versus a full one, budget scanning against real rate limits and cost, and build the evidence trail that proves currency to an auditor rather than merely asserting it.
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.
