Project Spotlight: OWASP Top 10
We are back again with yet another OWASP Spotlight series and this time we have a project which needs no introduction and I got the chance to interact with Andrew van der Stock, OWASP Foundation Executive Director and the project leader for OWASP Top 10.
The OWASP Top 10 is a book/referential document outlining the 10 most critical security concerns for web application security. The report is put together by a team of security experts from all over the world and the data comes from a number of organisations and is then analysed.

OWASP Members - submit your views to our bylaw survey for a chance to win an AppSec Virtual or AppSec Global pass
Recently, we received legal advice on the upcoming Leaders as Members bylaw and policy changes. Long story short, we may need eligible OWASP members to vote to approve a new or updated certificate of incorporation and bylaws. The required changes are so extensive, that we may need to replace our bylaws with much newer ones. Therefore, OWASP is consulting with OWASP Members on our bylaws’ membership classes and their rights, privileges, and powers.
Bylaws and membership rights is both incredibly important and yet incredibly boring unless you are a policy wonk. To encourage survey submissions, the OWASP Foundation is offering a prize for three random OWASP members who complete the survey: a pass to any OWASP Global AppSec conference held in 2022, including OWASP 2022 Global AppSec Europe Virtual Event, OWASP 2022 Global AppSec AsiaPac Virtual Event, and OWASP 2022 Global AppSec San Francisco. See conditions of entry below for the fine print.
