Create a Security Labs campaign
You can create a campaign that contains one or more lab assignments and automatically assign the campaign to one or more roles.
Before you begin:
You must be a Security Labs administrator or manager to create campaigns.
To complete this task:
-
Select your username in the top-right corner of the Security Labs page to open the menu.
-
Select Assign Content.
-
On the Assign content through campaigns page, select Create new campaign. The Create New Campaign window opens.
-
Enter a name for the new campaign and select the roles you want to complete this new campaign.
-
Select to assign the content manually or to use the wizard to assign content automatically. Veracode recommends you use the automatic option.
-
Select Next.
-
In the Select language section, select the icons for the languages you want in the assignment, or select the Select all checkbox to add all languages.
-
From the Select Schedule dropdown menu, select the frequency of the labs.
-
From the Select Focus dropdown menu, select the area or level for the labs.
-
Select Next.
-
In the campaign summary window, set the start date and time. If applicable, set an end date and time. If you selected Quarterly Deadlines for a Year or Monthly Topics for a Year from the Select Schedule menu, the End date dropdown selection is not available.
-
Select if you want to allow users to take labs after the end date and if you want Veracode to notify users when the assigned campaign begins.
-
If using Competition mode, select how to evaluate competitions:
- Compete by User: evaluate users, identified by their usernames.
- Compete by Role: evaluate users, identified by their assigned roles. Users compete against other users who have the same role.
-
Select Create.
-
In the Create campaign window, select if you want to launch the campaign immediately or leave it inactive (paused).
-
Select Create. The new campaign appears in the list of campaigns as either live or paused.
Next steps:
To start a paused campaign, select Launch campaign.
