Security Journey 2024: A Year of Powerful Product Enhancements

2024 was a year of significant growth and improvement for Security Journey, and we're excited to share some of the key product updates that empowered our customers to elevate their security awareness training programs.  

Security Journey Releases a Secure Coding Training Program Guide to Address Industry Needs and Regulatory Requirements, keeping you informed and prepared for the latest security challenges. 

These updates, designed for ease of use, focus on streamlining user management, enhancing learning customization, expanding hands-on content, and improving overall platform usability. They will save you time, give you more control over your training content, and offer a more engaging learning experience for your team. 

Simplified User Management 

• SCIM Support - Say goodbye to manual user provisioning! SCIM integration allows for seamless automation, enabling you to automatically provision and de-provision users directly from your HR system. 
• CSV Support - Bulk user management just got easier. Add, edit, and archive users in bulk with a simple CSV upload, saving you time and effort. 

Enhanced Learning Customization 

• Restricted Paths - Gain granular control over your training content. Restrict paths to ensure learners only see relevant materials within Assignments, decluttering their learning experience. 
• User Property Filters in Assignment Progress - Dive deeper into your assignment data. Filter assignment progress reports using any user property, including those from SSO, SCIM, CSV uploads, or manual entries, to gain valuable insights into learner performance. 
• Lesson Re-Assignment - Reinforce crucial security concepts and meet compliance requirements by requiring learners to retake lessons in duplicated or new paths. 

Expanded Hands-on Content 

• Tasks List - Guide learners through complex Break/Fix lessons with a clear and organized list of instructions in the new Tasks pane. 
• Hands-on Only Role-Based Paths - Access a comprehensive library of hands-on training plans that mirror those available in HackEDU. 
• Coding and Hacking Challenges - Elevate your training with engaging, real-world challenges.  
• Coding Challenges - Integrate coding challenges into Paths and Tournaments for a practical learning experience. 
• Hacking Challenges - Add excitement and competition with hacking challenges in Tournaments.  

Improved Platform Usability 

• Banner Updates - Communicate important information effectively with enhanced platform banners. Easily add and delete messages for all learners. 
• Assignment Status Update - Track learner progress more accurately with the new "Not Started" assignment status. Identify and encourage learners who haven't begun their training. 
• Quiz Question Update - We've streamlined quiz questions, reducing the number to 5 for improved engagement, better question quality, and faster lesson completion. 
• Admin UI Update - The platform's redesigned Admin interface makes it easy to navigate, featuring a dedicated navigation item for quick access to downloadable reports.
