Hi Coders!

ProgramEquity provides a space for those transitioning into tech to connect with mentors who will support them as they build their portfolio. This workshop is part of Program Equity’s summer series.

🍎 This workshop will cover:

  • Open source ecosystem: how security research powers health****
  • What are CVEs: methods for publicly sharing information on cybersecurity vulnerabilities and exposures
  • Workflows for the ecosystem: How you can implement secret scanning, code scanning, and dependabot for software supply chain
  • Demo: resolving a security advisory

  • Just graduated from a coding bootcamp or early career
  • Want to build your open source portfolio and technical writing
  • Looking for mentors who care about social causes
