− | Starting an OWASP Project is easy. You don't have to be an application security expert. You just have to have the drive and desire to make a contribution to the application security community.
| |
− | | |
− | Here are some of the guidelines for running a successful OWASP project:
| |
− | | |
− | * The best OWASP projects are strategic - they make it easier to produce secure applications by filling a gap in the application security knowledge-base or technology support.
| |
− | | |
− | * You ''can'' run a single person project, but it's usually best to get the community involved. You should be prepared to support a mailing list, build a team, speak at conferences, and promote your project.
| |
− | | |
− | * You can contribute existing documents or tools to OWASP! Assuming you have the intellectual property rights to a work, you can open it to the world as an OWASP Project. Please coordinate this with OWASP by contacting owasp(at)owasp.org.
| |
− | | |
− | * You should promote your project through the OWASP channels as well as by outside means. Get people to blog about it!
| |
