Go beneath the 60 to 80 percent noise-reduction headline and learn how reachability verdicts are actually produced: call-graph construction, vulnerable-symbol data, dynamic and configuration evidence, EPSS and KEV, and Safeguard's adversarial proof and disproof. Then operate it at estate scale with reachability-driven gates, VEX statements that survive audit, false-negative sampling, and clear knowledge of where static analysis lies.
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.
