Case Study: Paysafe boosts developer productivity and cuts vulnerabilities with Secure Code Warrior

Paysafe boosts developer productivity by 45% with Secure Code Warrior

Paysafe, a multinational online payment provider, faced the challenge of elevating its secure coding standards beyond basic PCI DSS compliance. Their goal was to shift security left in the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and foster a culture of collaboration between engineering and security teams, moving away from simply checking a training box. To achieve this, they partnered with Secure Code Warrior and adopted its Developer Risk Management Platform to create a scalable, engaging, and continuous application security program.

By implementing Secure Code Warrior's platform with gamified learning, tournaments, and formal certification programs, Paysafe successfully embedded secure coding practices. The results were significant, including a major reduction in vulnerabilities found during early-stage SAST scans and a 45% improvement in developer productivity due to less time spent reworking flawed code. Paysafe also achieved a top-tier SCW Trust Score® ranking within the financial services vertical, demonstrating the proven ROI and real risk reduction delivered by Secure Code Warrior.
