This is where you need to add your more robust project description. A project description should outline the purpose of the project, how it is used, and the value it provides to application security. Ideally, project descriptions should be written in such a way that there is no question what value the project provides to the software security community. This section will be seen and used in various places within the Projects Portal. Poorly written project descriptions therefore detract from a project’s visibility, so project leaders should ensure that the description is meaningful.

OWASP Secu-RT Project

The OWASP Secu-RT Project is an attempt to use the JVM itself for taint tracking. This project started by a challenge given to me at Appsec EU conference in Hamburg as I said that it should be possible to do dynamic source-sink analysis in basic Java applications. My challengers then told me: "Prove it". It took a while, but fairly soon I had a simple setup in which I demonstrated simple Log manipulation on the commandline and that it was detectable. This project is the continuation of that proof and is aimed at developers to help them detect security vulnerabilities using live source-sink analysis. It is dependent on the code coverage and not aimed to be used in a production environment.

Description

This project aims to provide an invisible source-sink analyser/taint tracker. It will do this by knowing the various sources and sinks in each JVM language and displays the full trace of a string that entered through a source and exits unmanaged at a sink.

This project is not intended to be used in a production environment, but as an aid in testing the security flow during the QA phase.
