A Leader’s Guide to Building and Scaling Security Champion Programs

Developers are shipping faster than security can keep up. Shadow code, mounting vulnerabilities, and overstretched AppSec teams mean risk is already embedded in your pipelines. Security Champion programs are how leading organizations turn the tide, embedding security where it matters most: inside the code.

You’ll get proven strategies to launch, scale, and sustain a Champion program, plus frameworks and templates you can put into practice immediately. Whether you’re building from scratch or leveling up a mature program, this is your playbook to scale security through people—and finally keep pace with development.

What’s Inside?

• Design a program that fits your organization, not a one-size-fits-all template.

• Recruit and onboard Champions from across engineering and beyond.

• Keep engagement high with gamification, rituals, and recognition that actually work.

• Measure success with impact, not vanity metrics, and communicate it to leadership.

• Scale sustainably with strategies for long-term growth and culture change.
