KEY RESULTS FROM THE OWASP SUMMIT
SUMMIT CONCLUSIONS DOCUMENT
"ALGARVE, PORTUGAL, November 7, 2008 – The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) today announced results from the annual OWASP Summit. Over 80 application security experts from over 20 countries joined forces to identify, coordinate, and prioritize our 2009 efforts to create a more secure Internet.
OWASP is a free and open community that focuses on improving application security. There is overwhelming evidence that the vast majority of web applications contain security holes that are increasingly putting people and organizations at serious risk. Securing web applications is an extraordinarily difficult technical challenge that demands a concerted effort.
“OWASP came together for a week and produced a stunning amount of new ideas,” said OWASP Chair Jeff Williams. “Our community is growing and organizing into a powerful movement that will affect software development worldwide. This summit marks a major milestone our efforts to improve application security. (...)” See here the fully OWASP Board's signed document with OWASP Summit 2008's conclusions" and watch OWASP Board's videos - Jeff Williams and Dinis Cruz.
Key results from the OWASP Summit include:
UPDATED OWASP PRINCIPLES
• Free & Open,
• Governed by rough consensus & running code,
• Abide by a code of ethics (see ethics),
• Not-for-profit,
• Not driven by commercial interests,
• Risk based approach.
UPDATED CODE OF ETHICS
• Support the implementation of and promote compliance with standards, procedures, controls for application security,
• Have objectivity, due diligence and professional care in accordance with established standards,
• Responsible disclosure.
NEW OUTREACH PROGRAMS
• OWASP has expanded its outreach efforts by building relationships with technology vendors, framework providers, and standards bodies. In addition, we piloted a new program to provide free one-day seminars at universities and developer conferences worldwide.
NEW GLOBAL COMMITTEE STRUCTURE
• OWASP recognized the extraordinary contribution of our most active leaders by engaging them to lead a set of six new committees. Each democratically established committee will focus on a key function or geographic region, such as OWASP projects, conferences, local chapters, membership and industry outreach.
