Current Project Funds


Remote Participation Update for 2013 Project Summit

Unfortunately, we were not able to raise enough funds to facilitate remote participation for the 2013 Project Summit. It is certainly an aspect of our summits that we find incredibly important, and we will work hard to make sure remote participation is an option our contributors have in 2014.

Message from Jim Manico: OWASP Podcast Announcement

I am very excited to pass the OWASP Podcast baton over to Mark Miller. Mark is a very experienced podcaster who will be taking over as Executive producer and host of the OWASP Podcast.

There will be a little overlap. I will be posting to https://www.owasp.org/download/jmanico/podcast.xml for just three more shows and will end my feed with OWASP Podcast #100 by the end of the year.

Please enjoy the new OWASP Podcast feed from Mark Miller. http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundcloud:users:63303345/sounds.rss will will be the new RSS address for the podcast moving forward.

Thank you Mark!

Message from OWASP ByWaf Project Leader, Rafael Gil: Beta Release

My team is glad to present to you the Bywaf framework. ByWaf is not just a small tool or plugin or script, but a new way to integrate, create and improve more tools all in a single user-friendly, command-line environment.

This framework may look like metasploit at first sight but is not, this is different in the following aspects:

It is friendly with the end-user; it is made thinking that not all the end-users are experts in developing, scripting, etc. You can use “TAB” in every place into the framework, you just need to use your common sense.

ByWaf allows you to share information between plugins, so you can use a plugin to enumerate all the input fields, then the results are stored in a data base you can use another plugin that injects java script into those fields, with this you don’t need to export or save or edit all the information ByWaf will do it for you.

And more.

We are releasing our Beta, there is a long way to archive our goal but I hope some of you get involved at this project as well.

You can find more information at:
