Why I would like to be elected to the Global OWASP Foundation Board of Directors
Many organizations throughout industry struggle with security. In fact, hardly a day passes without news of serious exploitation. Many outside our industry feel security is hopeless no matter how much investment is applied. As application security professionals we know this is not true. Security can be so much better than it is today! We don’t fail because we fall short on ideas for positive improvement. We fall short on resources and implementation. Many industries don’t invest in application security to a level commensurate with their risk and exposure. The auto industry does not get to decide if cars will include seat belts or air bags. Business owners don’t get to decide if buildings will include fire alarms and sprinkler systems. We don’t leave these decisions to organization executives. Application security must be treated similarly. It’s my strong desire to influence industry in ways encouraging more positive security outcomes for organizations and security practitioners.
