A guided tour of Safeguard Gold Explore, the public intelligence catalogue that puts one search box in front of packages, vulnerabilities, weaknesses, ATT&CK techniques, AI models, MCP servers, agent skills, chips and malicious packages, showing what each catalogue holds, where its data comes from, and how entity pages cross link into a single research graph. The course closes with a worked dependency adoption workflow and the boundary between free research and the full platform.
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.
