A one million milestone for the Web Security Academy
Summary: PortSwigger's Web Security Academy reached its one millionth user, a milestone the company announced this week. Launched in April 2019 with four classic topics, the free Academy now offers nearly 150 interactive labs across 15 vulnerability classes, accessed by tens of thousands of individuals each month.
Bottom line: One million people have trained on free, hands-on labs covering 15 vulnerability classes - a reminder that the attackers and defenders your team faces are increasingly self-taught on the same public material.
