About Kontra
Kontra + Courses helps organizations build application security skills across development teams through a combination of 50+ video courses and 300+ hands-on vulnerability labs. Developers learn to identify, exploit, and remediate real vulnerabilities across 25+ technology stacks using practical code examples in their actual frameworks. Each Kontra lab walks through a real-world vulnerability scenario—like the 2021 Log4Shell exploit—then guides users through hands-on remediation with stack-specific code. This practical approach leads to 3x higher completion rates than traditional security training and helps AppSec teams scale secure coding practices without pulling developers out of their workflow. Most labs take under 10 minutes to complete. The platform is SCORM-compliant and integrates with existing LMS systems or can be delivered via hosted environment. Role-based curriculum aligns with NIST, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS, and supports ISC2 co-branded certification.
