Start 2026 by Leveling Up Your Secure Coding Skills

As we step into 2026, many developers and security engineers are setting new goals: writing safer code, understanding real-world vulnerabilities, and closing the gap between theory and practice. To kick off the year, we’re excited to invite you to take part in our Holiday 7×7 Game.

The Holiday 7×7 Game is a limited-time event featuring a curated set of hands-on security challenges designed to help you sharpen your secure coding and application security skills through realistic scenarios. Rather than focusing on abstract concepts, each challenge places you directly in the context of modern systems and real development workflows.

Across the game, you’ll encounter challenges that go beyond the usual programming languages such as JavaScript, Go, Python, and Ruby. The challenges span a wide range of domains, including Azure cloud security, Move smart contract development, exploitation techniques, incident response workflows, and more. The goal is not only to identify vulnerabilities, but to understand how they arise, how they are exploited, and how they should be mitigated in production systems.

We also feature special Attack and Defence Wargames, where your patches are tested against other real players. Think your fix is robust enough to survive wave after wave of exploits? Put it to the test. In addition to defensive patching, you’ll also step into the attacker’s role once your application is deployed. Build solid defences while actively exploiting your opponents’ mistakes.

Whether you’re a software engineer looking to strengthen your security fundamentals, an AppSec practitioner seeking more hands-on exposure, or a security engineer aiming to stay sharp across multiple ecosystems, the Holiday 7×7 Game is designed to meet you where you are. Each challenge is concise, focused, and built to encourage exploration.

Make improving your secure coding skills part of your 2026 resolution.
