OWASP Java and JVM Project

The OWASP Java Project is the clearing house for all information related to building secure web applications and services based on Java and JVM technologies. The focus of the project is on guidance for developers using Java frameworks for web application development, OWASP Components that use Java and participation in OWASP projects that use Java. The project addresses as well topics around the JVM in general.

Community content is key to security information. The project depends on content from developers throughout the Java and JVM ecosystem.
