Proposed Layout

The proposed OWASP Web Services Security Project will serve as a starting point for any web services-related inquiries on OWASP. It will consist of a launchpad or home page with an introduction to the project, regular updates to pages in the project, and links to project pages and external resources.

Goals & Roadmap

Currently the project goals are to:

  • Creation of launch pad layout
  • Create template start page for each subtopic
  • Find solid external resources
  • Recruit volunteer team (2-4 person)
  • For each topic:

- Create start page for the subtopic topic

- Gather all existing relevant articles within OWASP

- Create plan of consolidating all the relevant information

- Contact authors of relevant articles if change is required

- Consolidate all information on the topic

- Find solid external resources

- Create link back to the main Web Services Security Project launchpad

  • Research way of communicating any updates to web services pages on launchpad
  • Search optimization (both OWASP and Google)


A detailed project plan and schedule will be developed shortly and posted here.
