About
What is ESAPI?
Reinventing the wheel when it comes to developing security controls for every web application or web service leads to wasted time and massive security holes. The OWASP Enterprise Security API (ESAPI) Toolkits help software developers guard against security-related design and implementation flaws. Just as web applications and web services can be Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) enabled (PK-enabled) to perform for example certificate-based authentication, applications and services can be OWASP ESAPI-enabled (ES-enabled) to enable applications and services to protect themselves from attackers. Using an ESAPI Toolkit realizes cost savings through reduced development time, and the increased security due to using heavily analyzed and carefully designed security methods provide developers with a massive advantage over organizations that are trying to deal with security using existing ad hoc secure coding techniques. Available platforms, frameworks, and toolkits (Java EE, Struts, Spring, etc...) simply do not provide enough protection! ESAPI Toolkits are designed to automatically take care of many aspects of application security, making these issues invisible to the developers.
Additional Benefits
The use of the ESAPI will also make it much easier for static analysis tools to verify an application, by building ESAPI calls into static analysis tool rulesets.
Where did ESAPI come from?
The OWASP ESAPI project is led by Jeff Williams, who serves as the volunteer chair of OWASP and is the CEO of Aspect Security. Jeff is a software developer who has specialized in application security since 1995. The ESAPI is the result of over a decade of code review and penetration testing of critical enterprise applications. If you'd like to volunteer to help on the project, you can contact him at [email protected].
