OWASPs

OWASPs refers to the Open Web Application Security Project, a non-profit foundation dedicated to improving software security. It operates as a global community of security professionals and enthusiasts who work collaboratively to create and maintain resources for identifying and mitigating software security risks. OWASPs is best known for its "OWASP Top 10," a regularly updated report that highlights the most critical security risks to web applications. This list serves as a valuable educational tool for developers, security professionals, and decision-makers, helping them prioritize security efforts.

Beyond the Top 10, OWASPs develops and distributes a wide range of free and open-source tools, documentation, and training materials. These resources cover various aspects of application security, including testing methodologies, secure coding practices, and security awareness. The organization encourages contributions from its members, fostering a continuous improvement cycle for its projects and content. OWASPs projects are used globally by organizations of all sizes to enhance their application security posture and train their personnel. Their mission is to make application security more accessible and understandable to everyone.
