Charter

The OWASP Intrinsic Security Working Group (ISWG) is a small, representative body of OWASP members whose primary goal is to help all the organizations involved in making web applications work on the Internet today. This involves proposing new functionality and advising how to improve existing functionality.

In order to accomplish these goals, the ISWG will focus their energy on the following tasks:

  • collect ideas from the OWASP community on how to secure the infrastructure of the web (including regarding browser features, influencing W3C standards, updating relevant RFCs, working with framework vendors)
  • create precise, organized and technical arguments for the acceptance of a community idea
  • communicate that idea to the appropriate stakeholder

Depending on the issue or idea, the ISWG may either create a draft for issuance to a stakeholder and then ask the OWASP community for input, or allow the draft be entirely crowdsourced and then perform final edits.

Joining the ISWG

If you are interested in joining the ISWG, please express your interest to an existing ISWG member or send a message to the ISWG mailing list. The ISWG is seeking highly motivated individuals who are familiar with the hurdles of the current web application infrastructure and are capable of tackling issues in a non-combative way. The ISWG is not interested in nonconstructive arguments or those that would exhibit uncooperative behavior towards any of the stakeholders involved. We need respectful, technical and creative people who want to put the work in to create a better Internet architecture.
