Welcome
2013 OWASP Project Summit Report
The OWASP Project Summit is a smaller version of the much larger OWASP Summits. This event activity gives our project leaders the opportunity to showcase their project progress, and have attendees sit down and work on project tasks before, during and after the annual fundraiser (AppSec) regional event. It is an excellent opportunity to engage the event attendees, and it gives project leaders the chance to move forward on their project milestones while meeting new potential volunteers that can assist with future milestones.

Call to Action by Samantha Groves/OWASP Projects Manager
Hello OWASP Leaders,
The 2013 OWASP Summit is happening! We had to overcome a few obstacles to get to where we are now, but we have had incredible support from the community after our intentions where made public. It's now time to start working on OWASP 5.0 at this year's AppSec USA in New York. I do realize that we still have a massive workload to complete before the event, but I am confident that we can make this Summit a great success for our community and beyond. We need to ensure that the culture of our OWASP Summits continues, and I am dedicated to making this a great success for our community so we may continue our efforts for years to come.
Help design the 2013 OWASP Summit in New York!
As OWASP Leaders, I would like you to take some time to help us design this year's Summit. We currently have a handful of tracks and session ideas, but I would love to have your input on what you think we should focus on. Please have a think about the projects, topics, working sessions, and tracks you would like to see or participate in at this year's summit. The Summit team will take these ideas, and create a cohesive and comprehensive schedule of sessions based on your input so I encourage you to summit your ideas straight away. I encourage you to have a look at the current track and session ideas.
We need your ideas, energy, and input NOW! Please add your name to the attendee list if you are joining us or would like to attend!
We will see you at AppSec USA in New York City!
Samantha Groves
OWASP Projects Manager

Frequently Asked Questions
This page contains answers to frequently asked questions about the 2013 OWASP Summit.
Logistics
What is the Global Summit? Is it like AppSec or other OWASP conferences?
The OWASP Global Summit is the place where application security experts meet to discuss plans, projects and solutions for the future of application security. The Summit is not a conference - there are no talks or training seminars - this is an opportunity to do actual work to further the field of application security. We are holding the summit as part of our AppSec USA 2013 conference, but it is a separate activity from the conference itself. Participants will stay in shared accommodations and collaborate to produce tangible progress towards influencing standards, establishing roadmaps, and setting the tone for OWASP and application security for the coming years. The Summit will consist of Summit Working Sessions with a variety of topics set by our community. Participants are free to attend any working session, but we encourage everyone to select working sessions for topics where they have the most to contribute.
Anyone can attend the Summit! OWASP community members, application security experts, industry players, and developers are all welcome at the Summit. If you would like to receive a personalized invitation for yourself or another person, see the contact either Samantha Groves or Kait Disney Leugers.
When is the Summit?
The Summit will be held November 18th-21st (Monday-Thursday), 2013.

Please visit the the expected attendee page to see the most up to date list on who is attending the Summit.
OWASP Summit Sponsorship
I'm an OWASP leader - why isn't this free for me?
During the previous Summit, OWASP was fortunate enough to be able to fund all OWASP leaders to attend the Summit. Unfortunately, the budget for the 2013 Summit is not as large as our previous budgets. Moreover, due to the success of OWASP, the organization has grown on a world-wide level resulting in even more OWASP leaders that want to attend the summit (and who need funding). As a result, we are making the following compromise with our attendees: OWASP will provide the venue meeting rooms, the A/V equipment, and the venue supporting staff in order to enable attendees to work effectively; attendees just have to pay for travel and accommodations for themselves.
So who is being funded?
The first round of sponsored attendees was selected based on their contribution to AppSec USA. These sponsored leaders are our Project Talk Speakers and Summit Session Leaders. Leaders with funding in their projects have also decided to use those project funds to assist with the summit, and give project talks at AppSec USA since our funds are very limited this year. Key summit assistants were also funded as they will be key to the successful running of a 4 day summit.
What does it mean to be a "sponsored" Summit attendee?
A sponsored summit leader must prepare and chair their scheduled summit session, and a sponsored summit assistant must be available to help with on-site logistics throughout the entirety of the summit.
Why do they get funded and not me?
Please understand that we have very limited funds available. If you were not chosen to be funded, please do not take it personally. We simply do not have enough funds to sponsor all the great members of OWASP to attend.
Someone from OWASP said that I would be sponsored. What gives?
Unfortunately there has been a great deal of inconsistent information spread around about the Summit, even from people highest levels of OWASP leadership. The reality is that the budget for the Summit is not nearly as large as it needs to be to sponsor all deserving attendees. If you were told by someone in OWASP that you would be sponsored, we apologize for the confusion.
Employer Funding/Sponsorship
My employer needs an invitation letter/documentation to sponsor me to go? Where do I get this?
Please contact Samantha Groves with your request, and she will work with you on creating some personalized material for your employer/sponsor.
Can my company have a logo on the wiki page if they fund me?
Yes. Please visit the expected attendee page to see where your company's logo will appear if they fund your trip.
I need help convincing my employer to fund my Summit attendance - what should I tell them?
You can use the following points in your discussion:
This year's Summit will be a gathering of OWASP leaders and key industry players to focus on a variety of important application security topics including browser security and cross-site scripting eradication. Attending the Summit will provide <EMPLOYEE NAME> with opportunities to:
- Participate in the latest developments in application security and influence its trajectory
- Gain new skills and technical knowledge for current application security projects
- Find out where other companies are focusing their energy and resource
- Increase visibility for <COMPANY’S NAME>
We believe that <EMPLOYEE’S NAME>’s attendance at the Global Summit is an worthwhile investment for both <COMPANY NAME> and <EMPLOYEE NAME>. Therefore, we are asking you to consider supporting <EMPLOYEE’S NAME> participation at this important event by donating <HIS/HER> time to attend the Summit.
Working Sessions
I want to plan/run a Working Session. What do I need to do?

Projects Participating
The AppSensor project defines a conceptual framework and methodology that offers prescriptive guidance to implement intrusion detection and automated response into an existing application. Current efforts are underway to create the AppSensor tool which can be utilized by any existing application interested in adding detection and response capabilities.
The Code Review Guide focuses on secure code reviews and tools that aim to support the developer community. Such an activity is very powerful as it gives the developer community a place to start regarding secure application development.
The Development Guide is aimed at architects, developers, consultants, and auditors. It is a comprehensive manual for designing, developing, and deploying secure Web Applications and Web Services. The OWASP Developer Guide 2013 aims to focus the content from countermeasures and weaknesses to secure software engineering.
The OWASP Education Projects
The OWASP Education project is meant to centralize all educational initiatives of OWASP. The project will not deliver education material as such, but define standards and guidelines on education material. Furthermore, this project aims to create an easy entrance towards understanding application security and usage of the OWASP tooling. By creating education documentation papers, screen scrape video courses, and setting up an OWASP Boot camp, a controlled education process of a standardized quality can be created continuously.

ESAPI (The OWASP Enterprise Security API) is a free, open source, web application security control library that makes it easier for programmers to write lower-risk applications. The ESAPI libraries are designed to make it easier for programmers to retrofit security into existing applications.
The Software Assurance Maturity Model (SAMM) is an open framework that aims to help organizations formulate and implement a strategy for software security that is tailored to the specific risks facing the organization. SAMM was defined with flexibility in mind such that it can be utilized by small, medium, and large organizations using any style of development.
This Testing Guide Project’s goal is to create a “best practices” web application penetration testing framework which users can implement in their own organizations. Contributors of this project are currently writing Version 4 of the guide, and are actively seeking authors.
The Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is an easy to use integrated penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web applications. It is designed to be used by people with a wide range of security experience, and as such, is ideal for developers and functional testers who are new to penetration testing. ZAP provides automated scanners as well as a set of tools that allow you to find security vulnerabilities manually.
The primary focus is at the application layer. While we take into consideration the underlying mobile platform and carrier inherent risks when threat modeling and building controls, we are targeting the areas that the average developer can make a difference. Additionally, we focus not only on the mobile applications deployed to end user devices, but also on the broader server-side infrastructure which the mobile apps communicate with. We focus heavily on the integration between the mobile application, remote authentication services, and cloud platform-specific features.
