Q-Day: How Quantum Computing Will Break Today's Modern Cryptography (And What to Do About It)

Wednesday, May 13, 2026 - Only 5 weeks to go!

Have you ever wondered about the power of quantum computing, and the threat it poses to our state-of-the-art cryptography? In this webinar, I take you on deep-dive into the world of quantum, and showcase the danger quantum computers bring to a typical software development company by demonstrating which primitives a quantum computer breaks. As you'll see, these primitives include most of the modern symmetric and asymmetric ciphers, and more worrying, nearly the whole world uses them to present day. In fact, quantum computers empower the harvest-now-decrypt-later philosophy, and many attackers collect data now already for later decryption. However, the webinar will also give you hints on what you can do to protect your data now already, in an attempt to prevent the worst-case.

Operational Security (OpSec)

- Thursday, June 11, 2026

The strongest encryption in the world is useless if a developer leaks a private key on Slack or a password is taped to a monitor. OpSec is about the “human and process” side of the security equation. In this intensive one-day session, we switch perspectives. By learning to think like an attacker, you will identify the “digital breadcrumbs” your team leaves behind and learn how to sanitize your workflows to prevent social engineering and data exfiltration.

Generative AI for Business: Efficiency, Ethics, and ROI

Secure Coding for .NET Developers

- Tuesday, July 7, 2026 - Wednesday, July 8, 2026

As the primary target for many enterprise-level attacks, .NET applications require more than just “best effort” security. This course transforms developers into security-first architects. You will move past the OWASP Top 10 to understand the nuances of the .NET ecosystem—from hardening your middleware to securing the CLR. We focus on defense-in-depth, ensuring that even if one layer fails, your data remains uncompromised.

Microsoft Agent Framework: Orchestrating AI LLMs

- Thursday, August 20, 2026

Testimonials

The class yesterday with Markus was fantastic. It's so refreshing to hear people start from the point of view of the customer instead of drilled-down into what's become some awfully scary looking syntax. Markus makes complicated concepts clear--like lambda expressions. It's with a huge sense of relief that you all have created and made available the CODE Framework and your classes are really, really helpful. I can't thank you enough.

Thanks! Again, I just want to say that I thought it was a good training, and the trainers were able to keep me engaged in what they were discussing – even though I was remotely attending.

Steve Kaschimer

CSM, Architecture Specialist

My current project has benefitted tremendously because I was able to bypass many hours of studying dry text to learn the same materials. The key benefit of the training is being able to review the video of the training at a later date.

Fletcher Johnson

Congratulations! This was one of the best code classes I've ever taken. Markus is extremely clear in presenting concepts and then implementing them in a comprehensible manner.

I attended your day-long JavaScript class a couple months back. I have now begun to write my first stumbling code. I wanted to feed back how helpful your session was, starting with your recommendation of the development environment of Notepad++ and Chrome console output. I would be lost without that tip!

Toby Atkinson

Dataface

We have been playing around with the CODE framework in a small application the team here is putting together to help the field crews with their data entry tasks and it is coming around nicely. The simplicity of it, coupled with the solutions we were taught in the class we attended are paying off.
