2013 Board Elections

2013 OWASP International Board of Directors Election

The OWASP Foundation was established in 2001 as an open community and software security resource. Since then, OWASP has grown to be globally recognized as a credible source for application security standards (see industry citations). Individuals typically find OWASP when searching the internet for information about software security - and they are happy to find a reliable source of knowledge built by an extremely open and passionate community. OWASP is open to anyone. Anyone can attend OWASP's vendor agnostic local chapter meetings, participate in regional and global conferences, and contribute to the many OWASP projects. And anyone can start a new project, form a new chapter, or lend their expertise to help an OWASP Global Committee.

The OWASP Foundation Board of Directors currently consists of six elected volunteers (seven starting in 2014). These unpaid volunteers dedicate themselves to the organizational mission and playing a pivotal role in the software security community. OWASP conducts democratic elections of its Board Members to enable bottom-up advancement of its mission.

OWASP Foundation Board of Directors Updates

Note: Changes were decided and voted on at the August 19, 2013 Board Meeting

• Board Orientation Documents - An official board orientation set of documents will be created that includes a stated conflict of interest policy (in addition to what we have in the bylaws), 2 required reading short books on non-profit foundations, requirement to read previous financial reports and 990, and links to our to-be created governance page. All board members will sign and acknowledge completion of the orientation by Jan 1, 2014.

• Conflict of interest policies will also be extended to all employees and those in decision making roles for global conferences. We see this as a natural step to mature OWASP and better align with non-profit requirements. This is not in response to any concerns.

• Board Size - OWASP bylaws specify the board must be between 5 and 7 members. Currently the OWASP board is 6 members. We voted to extend to 7 members. The 2013 election will now seat 4 spots instead of 3. The newly elected board members will begin their terms Jan 1, 2014. At this time we'll see the board officially expand to 7 members.

• Quarterly Board Meetings - The board voted to move board meetings from the current schedule of monthly 1 hour meeting to quarterly 4-6 hour meetings. The schedule of meetings will be set by the board in December before the year. It is likely the the board meetings will take place on Saturdays or on a dedicated day before a large OWASP conference. This change is a result of the success of the longer format board meeting and also a result of the Executive Director role that has enabled full time involvement and focus on OWASP operations. This will take effect in January, 2014.

Abbas Naderi Afooshteh

Candidate	Abbas Naderi Afooshteh
Country Of Residence	USA
Membership Status	Honorary Member
Bio	Abbas Naderi Afooshteh is a renowned security expert in the middle east, he has ranked first in many national and global CTFs and has been in the field for more than 8 years. He is the current Iran Chapter Leader at OWASP, and has 5 years of activity in OWASP resulting in many projects such as OWASP RBAC Project, OWASP PHP Security Project, OWASP WebGoatPHP Project and etc. He has participated in many other projects such as Cheat Sheets and ESAPI.Abbas has studied software engineering and information technology in his BS and MS and is now going to CMU to study Information Security for MS+PhD. He spends many hours daily leading OWASP projects and mentoring new enthusiastics that join projects, as well as shaping bright ideas into OWASP projects.More can be found at https://abiusx.com/cv
Why Me?	I have watched OWASP evolve in many years, and inspected how greatly it has impacted the world of web security. Security has grown rapidly these years, and people look up to OWASP to feed them what they need.On top of that, OWASP has been my open source haven. The way it operates, people contributing without wanting back, everyone sharing and decisions made in public; I have never seen a community more selfless and more productive in any of the open source communities I've worked in.Unfortunately in recent years (specially last year), this trend was changed somehow. Many decisions were made at the board level, that leaders and active members greatly dislike. Many things were done that were not transparent at all. This trend has unmotivated a great many of OWASP participants, and I hate to see that happen any further.The board is there to take the load on OWASP, not to take the spirit away. It is solely there to make decisions when everybody else is busy doing actual worthy stuff, so I strongly believe that when the board works on a decision that will impact everybody in the community, and is not sure that (almost) everybody will like it, it has an obligation to ask and make sure before making that decision.I'm also strongly against the board members empowering their respective chapters, and leaving others behind. The rapid growth of OWASP is bound to introduction of new chapters, and supporting them. I see a lot of chapter with a handful of enthusiastics and they just need a kick-start to add a hundred new active members to our community, yet small influential chapters are taking all the credit and juice to them. The board are the elective body of the community, not their chapters.So on top of making the board activities much more transparent, and supportive other chapters, I plan to involve other influential bodies in the infosec world (namely companies and universities) and get them to financially and academically support new and bright OWASP projects so that they can prosper more rapidly. If we're going to stick what we had 5 years ago as our projects, people will turn away in time. We have a lot of potential and we ought to make it happen.

Michael Coates

Candidate	Michael Coates
Country Of Residence	USA
Membership Status	Honorary Member
Bio	Director of Security Assurance at Mozilla Current Chairperson of the OWASP Global Board Founder of OWASP AppSensor Project Michael Coates is the Director of Security Assurance at Mozilla. In this role, Michael sets the strategy for security across Mozilla and leads security operational initiatives. Michael leads a team of talented security experts from around the world that focus on securing Mozilla's technologies including: Firefox, Firefox OS, Web applications, services and the infrastructure and systems that power Mozilla. Michael was recently featured as one of SC Magazine's 2012 Influential IT security minds and often speaks on Web security at open source conferences and security events throughout the world. Michael holds a M.S. in Computer, Information and Network Security from DePaul University and a B.S in Computer Science from the University of Illinois.From 2011-2013 Michael was elected to the OWASP global board and served as the chair of the board. Michael is also the founder of the OWASP AppSensor project which is now featured by the Department of Homeland Security as a core approach to building resilient software and was the subject of an article within the Department of Defense Cross Talk magazine. He also was a core author of the OWASP Transport Layer Protection Cheat Sheet More about me: linkedin | blog | twitter | OWASP Wiki Edits
Why Me?	Over the first term on the global board I worked to bring maturity and structure to our growing organization. We established OWASP as a platform for security experimentation and growth. This included experimenting with new outreach channels such as the Security 101 mailing list and the 2012 monthly security blitz. In addition, I helped advance the OWASP foundation with a strong focus on budget planning and fiscal responsibility. We formalized board meetings with clear agendas and recorded archives and also created an Executive Director full time position to adapt to the growing size and needs of OWASP.Throughout these two years I was also a public advocate for OWASP which included OWASP specific talks at RSA 2012, the Department of Defense and at Oracle. I also conducted interviews for CNN and SCMagazine related to OWASP topics and security. Throughout my tenure I've always tried to bring a positive and community oriented spirit to OWASP discussions. If the OWASP community would like to see me continue on the OWASP board (which I would love to do) I will focus on the following items in 2013-2015: Expansion of OWASP to Technology Startups - Numerous technology startups are looking for guidance on how to build the framework and foundation of the security programs. Through my consultation with them I wish to work with the OWASP community to build an OWASP program focused on their needs. This will bring new organizations to OWASP and spread our mission to new technologies at the birth of their design. Growth of OWASP within Government - Now more then ever the issue of security is in the spotlight of legislation. OWASP can provide independent guidance and resources to help educate key policy makers and tools and projects that can be used by implementors. OWASP Community Platform: I've been working with our operations team to introduce recognition programs to our community. This would be in the form of digital badges, promotion of key activities by OWASP volunteers, creation of a central OWASP directory software to promote and build the OWASP community and more.I believe the OWASP community is the true power of OWASP. I'm committed to continuing to build a structure at OWASP that empowers individuals to take risks, experiment and learn. OWASP is a platform for security research and an independent voice of reason in the growingly complex field of security.

Tobias Gondrom

Candidate	Tobias Gondrom
Country Of Residence	Hong Kong & London
Membership Status	Current Paid Member, London Chapter Board Member
Bio	Running Thames Stanley, a boutique Global CISO and Information Security & Risk Management Advisory based in Hong Kong, United Kingdom and Germany.About 15 yrs of experience in software development, application security, cryptography, electronic signatures and global standardization organizations working for independent software vendors and large global corporations in the financial, technology and government sector.My background is in the industry and corporate side of web application security. Over the years, have run a coprorate info sec team and trained and advised dozens of CISOs and senior information security leaders around the globe. And in addition to my technical background, also have a management degree from London Business School, which helps with the governance and financial bit and pieces. And over the years gained some governance experience in a few global organisations and boards. OWASP related: Have volunteered for a few projects and chapter leadership roles since 2007.- Currently, as a member of the OWASP London chapter board and visiting a number of OWASP chapters in Asia as a guest speaker. - project lead for the OWASP CISO Report and Survey project and contributor to some other bits and pieces. - and given some CISO training days at our AppSec conferences. previously: - chapter lead OWASP Germany for a couple of months (until I moved to London). - volunteered for the Global Industry Committee. Beyond OWASP: - Since 2003, the chair of working groups of the IETF (www.ietf.org), a member of the IETF security directorate, and since 2010 chair of the web security WG at the IETF. - written some security RFCs and co-authored books on „Secure Electronic Archiving“ and a frequent presenter at conferences and publication of articles (e.g. AppSec, IETF, ISSE, ...).- Board member of the CSA Hong Kong and Macau chapter. - ISC2 CSSLP and CISSP Instructor.
Why Me?	I feel very passionate about our mission and our goals for an open community to advance web and application security globally. In the past that has inspired me to help with some ground work here and there, but not so much seeking a board election. However, in the last year, there were a few board decisions and activities, where I felt they were executed not in the best way for our community. And as a consequence, I gave myself the challenge to either shut up and accept things as they are or spend the time and effort and try to do it better. So am now trying the latter and volunteering for the board. ;-) There are a few things that I would like to look at on the board: 1. Increase reach out to developers and industry: I like to extend our OWASP reach much more towards industry and developers. (so to speak "where the rubber meets the road") We have so much expertise and knowledge in our community with all our great security experts and projects, but we need to get it out there and bring this more into the developer community and industry who actually build the applications in the first place, to increase our impact and help reduce the most common vulnerabilities. E.g. I find it is a shame that we are still looking at so many (too many) basic vulnerabilities, like e.g. SQL injection vulns, which could with some basic developer training be avoided. 2. Membership: I also like to extend corporate memberships towards industry and "consuming" companies as well. Today most of our corporate members are consulting and pen testing companies, I would like to also work to gain more industry corporate members. 3. Governance: advance the maturity of OWASP as an open community organisation. E.g. review some of the oversight and governance questions: I think we can be more transparent and open in how we do things, and even if it's just to be open and document processes how we make decisions. 4. Revisit the transition away from the global committees. I fear that a few things fell in the cracks when we shut down the committees and were not picked up yet.

Timur kHrotko

Candidate	Timur kHrotko
Country Of Residence	Hungary
Membership Status	Not a Member, Hungary Chapter Leader
Bio	I am a 43 yrs old Russian born in Budapest, Hungary. I am resident in Hungary, but I try to short visit Russia 4x a year. My English is quite fluent. It is 10 years now that my professional activity focuses on information security. First years me and my company we developed our own innovative enterprise IAM solutions. The key of innovation was to look at security not as a technical but business/organizational matter. While being quite a tech-savvy in security (from hardening a bsd server to teaching about password internals, advising financial institutions on secure architecture and being regular listener of pauldotcom) I still am a person who looks at problems in organizational perspective (management is my academic topic). I understand well the legal language having my 20 years practice in negotiations and contracting. I understand the managerial decision making not only as software vendor and consultant but as a researcher in organizational studies. All this is important, since I believe we must provide a whole vertical solution in application security: from secure coding guidelines up to corporate appsec policy and down the contractual templates. And we, OWASP have to cover these non-technological areas as good as we did with the development field. Some years backwards and achievement highlights:2013 Hungary chapter leader2012 Hungary chapter founder (one of the founders)2011 cloudbreaker.co AppSec/EH company started, partner/business relations2010 Defended PhD at Corvinus University of Budapest (more publications still needed to have the title)2010 My PhD dissertation is published in English as a book2008 ITEuropa IT Excellence Award to our innovative Identity Management solution (AZD idED) 2007 Hungarian (IT business) innovation award to our Identity Management solution2006 GE Money Hungary deploys the Identity Management solution (idED) made on mainly my concept2003 GE Money Hungary deploys an Access Management solution made with my business-process centric concept2000 MSc, Finance, Budapest University of Economic Sciences (BKÁE, BUES)1993 MSc, Business IT Management, Budapest University of Economic Sciences (BKE, BUES)
Why Me?	We have extraordinary security expertise, projects and tools, but a lot of security aware effort brakes on managerial/business and contractual negligence regarding application security. In order to be more successful in our efforts we must package the security aware approach into practices more easily adoptable by profit-oriented business organizations and bureaucratic institutions, practices more accessible for managerial decision making, and requirements controllable by legal instruments. As a Board member I would like to take care of non technological (non development/code/tool related) but rather business management related projects, best practices and vision of application security. For example application security must be blessed on corporate governance level, implemented on the level of procurement and contracting, and application security must be an aspect in vendor management. As OWASP we already have an authority of the global best practice provider, so using our existing patterns of projects we can provide the solutions for obstacles faced by our mainstream efforts. And there are already existing projects in OWASP regarding the aspect I advocate, so we can move forward fast.Being resident in Eastern Europe and being in my major part Russian I would like to extend the global spirit of the organization, and I would try to make the OWASP "device" more accessible in Russia next year.

Martin Knobloch

Candidate	Martin Knobloch
Country Of Residence	Netherlands
Membership Status	Current Paid Member , Netherland Chapter Leader
Bio	Martin has been a Java Developer and Software Architect, until he focused on Software security in 2005. In that year, he set-up an security task force at his former employer and after attending the 2nd OWASP AppSec-Eu conference in 2006, Martin got hooked by OWASP.Since 2007 Martin has been an active board member in the Netherlands Chapter. He has been involved in several projects and volunteers at AppSec-conferences. Further, he has been an active participator at the OWASP summits in 2008 and 2011 as well as chair of the OWASP Education Committee. Martin has represented OWASP and been a speaker at several OWASP, Developer, Testing and Hacker events in the Netherlands and International. Since February 2011, Martin is a self-employed security consultant and trainer.
Why Me?	With my experience of the OWASP organization, I will help the foundation to continue to grow the organization size and relevance to the wider community whilst maintaining independence and increasing openness towards the community.Next to that, I will focus on the following:- Increasing the awareness of OWASP outside the security community- Fostering the growing African community- Cultivate the initiatives of OWASP at educational institution as Universities

Jason Li

Candidate	Jason Li
Country Of Residence	USA
Membership Status	Current Paid Member
Bio	I am a long time OWASP contributor having served actively on the OWASP Global Projects CommitteeI from the birth of the global committees through their disbanding. I am one of the original co-authors of the AntiSamy Java project and the Code of Conduct for Certifying Bodies (the "Red" book). I was part of the core planning committee for the 2011 OWASP Summit along with Lorna Alamri and Sarah Baso. I've also worked behind the scenes supporting OWASP staff by creating the expense reimbursement workflow and new project forms that are still in use. I'm one of the resident OWASP wiki ninjas having created/pioneered many of the wiki templates used in OWASP projects and ultimately copied in other aspects of the wiki. During the day, I work as a Managing Consultant for Aspect Security performing a variety of application security consulting services. In my spare time, I am a social ballroom dancer, indoor rock climber, amateur trapeze artist, Star Trek fan, world traveler, and general adventurer.
Why Me?	I believe I will bring a sense of balance and vision to the Board. Having been involved in the organization for many years, I'm keenly aware of our history and of initiatives that have been successful and those that have failed. I would like those experiences and lessons learned to have a voice on the Board. I also believe in taking pragmatic action as opposed to pontificating about ideals. I have history of taking thoughtful action on behalf of OWASP - sometimes I've succeeded, sometimes I've failed - but I believe at some point the endless debate must end and something must simply be done with the best of intentions.

Bio	There is a world of numbers, hiding behind letters, inside computers that stimulates the brain of Yiannis. Currently, he is spending a lot of time in the area of IT risk management and risk control within the finance industry. Starting from the world of professional penetration testing, Yiannis did focus his career evolution on assisting teams write secure code and implementing an SDLC for large scale projects. For OWASP, Yiannis was the project leader for JBroFuzz and used to chair the Global Industry Committee, having contributed to a number of projects and initiatives listed here:https://www.owasp.org/index.php/User:Yiannis He is on the Application Security Advisory Board of (ISC)2, holds a PhD in information security, is a certified Scrum Master and is also CISSP certified.
Why Me?	"It's not what OWASP can do for you, but it's what you can do being a WASP!"Despite the above starting as a joke post BlackHat on the leaders mailing list, I think we as an organisation have a small reversal of roles when it comes to way we treat OWASP. I see a lot of people angry on the leaders mailing list, why is that? Do we need to perhaps clear to define the governance on this and other lists? For starters, I haven't been a project or chapter leader for a number of years, yet I am still on it. If I was elected on the board, I would continue building on the foundations of a good governance we have had from previous board members, with the intention of adding more structure to the organisation. Let's be clear this would not be an attempt to challenge the "O" in OWASP, instead provide the right forum for the right level of communication to take place. Experience in other organisations has shown me that you achieve a lot more that way.Vendors, logos, images, agendas, what is going on there? Definitely some work would need to take place to re-affirm the necessary neutrality that OWASP should have when it comes to such matters. An iterative process of re-affirming the level of neutrality required would be a proposal I would put forward for wider adoption. Having being a project leader, I recall the motivation of been granted money to write code, it was so exciting! We need more of that, but in the form of stakeholder management: Let's not kid ourselves there are well known ways to write good software and this industry has but a few good examples of that. Requirements, testing, stakeholder decisions on roadmaps would be on the table to manage and help fund projects. This would also help warrant maturity levels on projects and well, address the motivation behind the sad fact that everybody wants to be a project leader, without always carrying the responsibility.With the work that has been happening on the OWASP main site, I think it's time we started looking at how to clean up the content that is out there. Again, this is not necessarily in the form of archiving, but instead in the form of attempting to make the site simple to navigate. Everything from input validation filters for Java to people's itinerary information is on there. I mean, come on! I would tie this work into the governance piece stated above.Finally, I would invest a lot of time in terms of making sure that our permanent members of staff have a healthy environment of work to operate in. How? By means of establishing run-books, escalation paths and targeting the relevant communication to the right people. This after all would show how healthy we are in terms of processes and structure as an organisation. But before any of this, I would actually sit and listen, collecting feedback from the community on how they see we should change and how we should achieve getting there.

Josh Sokol

Candidate	Josh Sokol
Country Of Residence	USA
Membership Status	Current Paid Member, Austin Chapter Leader
Bio	Josh Sokol began his involvement with the OWASP Foundation over six and a half years ago. At the time, he was a newly hired Web Systems Engineer, working at National Instruments, and one of his teammates encouraged him to attend an OWASP meeting due to his active interests around Information Security. After just a single meeting, Josh was hooked. Soon, thereafter, Josh began helping the OWASP Austin Chapter Leader with scheduling and facilitating the meetings at National Instruments. His friend ended up taking over as President of the chapter and Josh became his VP. Several years later his friend was looking for someone to take over as President of the chapter and Josh was the natural choice. After fulfilling his obligations as Treasurer of the Capital of Texas ISSA Chapter, Josh took on the role of President of OWASP Austin. Josh installed a strong leadership team around him and worked with them to grow the chapter from a meeting average of 10-15 people to a consistent 40+, created monthly sponsored happy hours to help the community network, began weekly study groups to aide members in learning different topics, and co-founded the Lonestar Application Security Conference (LASCON) in order to make the OWASP Austin Chapter entirely self-sustaining as well as one of the largest financial contributors to the OWASP Foundation. After two years of serving as the OWASP Austin President, Josh handed the reigns over to another member of his leadership team and joined the OWASP Global Chapter Committee. Within two months of joining, the committee appointed Josh as the Chair. While serving on this committee, Josh fought for the rights of the Chapters. He helped to re-write the Chapter Handbook and created several new initiatives with the goal of helping maximize the potential of all OWASP chapters. Josh served as the Chair of the Global Chapter Committee until the committee structure was eliminated by the OWASP Board in late 2012. Josh continues to be an active member of the OWASP Austin leadership team.In his professional life, Josh has spent the past three and a half years employed as the Information Security Program Owner at National Instruments where he handles all vulnerability management, risk management, security architecture, security training, and security policies (among many other things) for the company. He has presented on security topics at BlackHat, OWASP AppSec USA, BSides Las Vegas, MISTI InfoSecWorld, and many more and is currently developing a free and open source risk management tool. Josh lives in Austin, TX with his wife and four daughters.
Why Me?	With two exceptions, the current OWASP Board of Directors consists of people who sell security products and services as their day job. But with one of the OWASP Core Values being "vendor neutrality", this presents a very significant conflict of interest. One which I, personally, have witnessed issues with and raised my concerns to the current Board. While I am most definitely a security professional by trade, my company does not currently make any products or sell any services in the security space. I am truly a security practitioner and have no hidden agendas or biases.Also, with few exceptions, many of the current Board members have no idea what it takes to run a successful OWASP chapter. Recently, they held a vote to remove the 60/40 membership fee split in order to correct a perceived issue with what they refer to as "rich chapters". The problem being, this proposal would have had little effect on those chapters and would effectively wipe out the ability for many of our smaller chapters to make money. Formerly, we had the Chapters Committee to stand up for the rights of our chapters and its leaders, but with the elimination of that committee structure, we have nothing. I frequently monitor the Board list as well as the Governance list and have, on several occasions, engaged the Board on issues that I felt warranted some "chapter leader" intervention, but officially I have no vote in these matters. Since the majority of our members are affiliated with a chapter, I am hoping that you will support me in being your voice. I love OWASP and have been passionate about it from the beginning. I am unbiased in my opinions and unafraid to stand up for what I believe is right. I would sincerely appreciate your vote to put me on the OWASP Board of Directors.
