SecDevOps Practitioner® (SDOP) Certification Training

This SecDevOps Practitioner® (SDOP) Certification Training follows the SecDevOps foundational practice in Course 3695, SecDevOps Foundation® (SDOF) Certification Training . While the foundation course provides a basic understanding and outlines the roadmap for implementation, this practitioner-level class adds a range of techniques for a more comprehensive understanding of SecDevOps. This includes achieving optimum outcomes by designing the right pipeline architecture, creating an effective team, and establishing best-practice processes.

SDOP Certification Training Delivery Methods

SDOP Certification Training Information

• In this SDOP Certification training, you will learn how to:

  • Prepare for the DevOps Institute SecDevOps Practitioner Certification (SDOP) with the world’s first accredited SecDevOps Practitioner course.
  • Establish SecDevOps maturity guidance for people processes and technology.
  • Implement and optimise typical pipeline tools to achieve improved CI/CD/CC results.
  • Gather effective metrics to streamline, verify, and tune pipeline operation.
  • Follow architectural best practices, including immutable infrastructure and high observability.
  • Leverage experimentation to achieve highly effective automated security protection.
  • Improve team performance following the leadership-at-all-levels approach.
  • Case studies, group collaborations, and practical hands-on exercises using typical pipeline tools are included.
  • Receive official certification from the DevOps Institute (DOI).
  • Continue learning and face new challenges with after-course one-on-one instructor coaching.

• SDOP Certification Training Prerequisites

  SecDevOps Foundational certification (SDOF) is expected, or alternatively DevOps Foundational certification or DevSecOps Foundational certification. Related courses include:

  • Course 3695, SecDevOps Foundation® (SDOF) Certification Training
  • Course 3685, DevOps Foundation® (DOFD) Certification Training

  Prospective attendees can confirm their prerequisite knowledge by taking the pre-course skills assessment (which takes approximately 15 minutes).

• SDOP Certification Exam Information

  • For certification, successfully pass (65%) the 90-minute examination, consisting of forty multiple-choice.
  • The certification and exam are governed and maintained by DevOps Institute.
  • The exam is conducted online and is open book.
  • A sample exam is provided to attendees at the end of the class.
  • A complimentary voucher to take the exam is provided by Learning Tree International.
