The ASCPC is a practical course built for DevOps professionals, security engineers, and developers seeking to understand and secure the evolving threat landscape of CI/CD pipelines.
Through a combination of guided labs and real attack scenarios, participants will gain hands-on experience with modern CI/CD tools like GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Docker, Kubernetes, Azure DevOps, and AWS CodeBuild. Each lab simulates realistic threat vectors and reinforces defensive engineering techniques.
This on-demand format allows you to start anytime, work at your own pace, and revisit the labs indefinitely.
Success in the ASCPC course depends on a proactive, hands-on approach. This is not a passive training—each module is built around realistic CI/CD attack paths and defensive engineering practices that demand attention to detail and technical execution.
To get the most from this experience:
This course is designed to push you beyond theoretical knowledge. Success comes from putting in the work—testing assumptions, breaking things, and ultimately learning how to secure modern DevOps workflows from the ground up.
The ASCPC On-Demand course is designed to be all-inclusive, but students should be aware of a few potential external costs related to lab access and certification preparation:

The Attacking & Securing CI/CD Pipeline Certification (ASCPC) – On-Demand is priced at $500. This fee includes access to expert-created instructional materials, self-managed labs that never expire, and one exam voucher.
The ASCPC On-Demand course is designed for professionals who are responsible for the security, deployment, or maintenance of CI/CD environments. Whether you’re building pipelines, reviewing code, defending infrastructure, or attacking systems in a controlled setting, this course offers valuable, hands-on experience.
This course is ideal for:
If you’re looking to move beyond theory and gain practical experience in attacking and securing real-world CI/CD pipelines, the ASCPC On-Demand course is built for you.
The ASCPC On-Demand course blends offensive and defensive techniques across a variety of CI/CD platforms, focusing on practical, hands-on skills. Students will explore vulnerabilities, exploit misconfigurations, and learn how to defend against real-world CI/CD threats.
Key focus areas include:
This course provides a comprehensive exploration of security risks within modern CI/CD pipelines. The syllabus is structured to guide participants from foundational concepts to advanced exploitation techniques, with hands-on labs reinforcing each topic. Covering widely used platforms such as GitHub Actions, CircleCI, AWS CodeBuild, Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure DevOps, the course equips learners with practical skills to identify vulnerabilities and implement effective security controls across the CI/CD ecosystem.
Our labs are continuously updated to incorporate new vulnerabilities, attack vectors, and defense mechanisms. This ensures that the training you receive is relevant and reflects the latest developments in cybersecurity. Plus, with lifetime access to your labs, you can continue practicing and improving your skills without any time constraints.
The diagram below illustrates the full attack surface covered throughout the ASCPC lab course. Students will follow real-world adversarial paths, starting from initial access in CI/CD platforms and progressing through misconfigurations, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and cloud service abuse.
Each stage of the attack map corresponds to a dedicated lab scenario, designed to simulate practical threats encountered in modern DevOps environments. This structured path ensures students gain a deep understanding of how CI/CD vulnerabilities are discovered, exploited, and ultimately remediated.
By the end of the course, students will have hands-on experience with every stage of the attack lifecycle across platforms like GitHub Actions, CircleCI, AWS CodeBuild, Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure DevOps.
