Welcome

This event activity gives our project leaders the opportunity to showcase their project progress, and have attendees sit down, discuss and provide feedback regarding the project before the annual fundraiser ([1]) regional event. It is an excellent opportunity to engage the event attendees, and it gives project leaders the chance to move forward on their project milestones while meeting new potential volunteers that can provide their input for future milestones.

Call to Action

Hello OWASP Leaders,

The 2015 OWASP Summit is currently in the planning process. We have managed to acquire a great space at Hyatt Regency San Francisco to the AppSec US 2015 planning team. A big thank you to the team for helping us nail down this pace for our summit. There are still quite a few things to do before we are good to go with this year's summit activities. As I mentioned last year, we need to ensure that the culture of our OWASP Summits continues, and I am dedicated to making this a great success for our community so we may continue our efforts for years to come.

Help design the 2015 OWASP Summit in US!

As OWASP Leaders, I would like you to take some time to help us design this year's Summit. We are currently looking for summit track and session ideas. I would love to have your input on what you think we should focus on. Please have a think about the projects, topics, working sessions, and tracks you would like to see or participate in at this year's summit. The Summit team will take these ideas, and create a cohesive and comprehensive schedule of sessions based on your input so I encourage you to summit your ideas straight away. Please email Claudia Aviles Casanovas

We need your ideas, energy, and input! Please reach out to any of us if you would like to lead a session or attend the 2015 Project Summit!

We will see you at AppSec US in San Francisco , US!

10:20 -11:50 & 14:30-17:30 OWASP ASVS Discuss issues around practitioners consuming ASVS in their consultancies Discuss how to improve adoption by development teams Live resolution of outstanding issues in ASVS Github Live QA of 2.1 Early planning of ASVS v3.0 Location room :E104

Hackademics

9:30 - 11:30 Hackademics – Wiki page rewrite, documentation review The current wiki page was written by the founders of the project back when the project started and it is missing lots of new information, also it has links to very old versions of the project and overall it needs rewriting. The current documentation is covering less than half of the features and it's wrong or not very clear in other parts.

This session will review, edit, update and release documentation for the version 2.0 of the project coming at the beginning of April. Moreover, we'll update the wiki listing contributors, developer guidelines, supporters and synch the documentation in the github wiki with the owasp wiki page. Participants should be familiar with hackademic and come with suggestions on missing guidelines.

14:00 - 17:30 Hackademics – Greek, French translation We are currently implementing an internationalization feature using I18n which should be ready for our v2.0 release. Our goal is to translate the strings present in the platform in French and Greek. (Since it's already in English and French and Greek are the only other languages the core contributors(and most likely participants) speak. There are approximately 300 strings in the platform. Participants to help are gladly welcome.

Location room :E103

AppSensor

13:00 – 15:00 AppSensor (Documentation) – Guide Review The AppSensor Guide v2 was published in May last year, and has had two minor updates, the last one mainly due to the important release of the v2 code implementation. This session is to edit and improve the guide, since many of the chapters have not been fully reviewed. Participants should read a chapter or two in advance of the summit (chapter 5 onwards, but choose randomly/what is of interest) and bring their edits/comments to the session, where the guide will be updated. All participants will be acknowledged in the guide and on the project wiki page.

• Briefing
• Live editing
• Publication updated PDF.

The latest version of the guide is at: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/File:Owasp-appensor-guide-v2.doc

OWASP OWTF

10h - 12h00: OWASP OWTF Introduction for GSOC Students The OWTF project has seen more than 8 GSoC projects being merged into the master branch over the past couple of years. We want to introduce the students to the program. Quick presentation of OWASP OWTF and some of its GSoC projects What did GSoC offer over the past 3 years? Current ideas for GSoC 2015 Brainstorm about new ideas for GSoC 2015 We expect to introduce students to OWTF and how GSoC would be a valuable experience for them.

Location room :E103

12h00 - 13h00: OWASP OWTF Open Forum Two ex-GSoC students are available to speak about their experience with OWTF and GSoC. How did we hear about GSoC? Why did we choose OWTF? How did they contact the project leader? What is a proposal? How hard was it? How much time did it take? What did GSoC give them back? We expect to share our experiences with possible future-GSoC students and help them to better understand what it can offer.

Location room :E103

14h00 - 17h00: OWASP OWTF Wiki Review Because OWTF has grown really fast the past years, some part of the wiki might be out of date even though we worked hard to update it. Proof-read the Wiki Reproduce the steps described in the Wiki Find the out-dated information Remove/Update them We expect to have an up-to-date wiki by the end of this session or at least a list of known out-of-date information.

Location room :E103

OWASP Security Shepherd

10:30 - 12:00 - Challenge Brain Storm The Security Shepherd project needs fresh challenge idea.Security Shepherd currently sports ~60 challenges covering the topics listed by the OWASP Web and Mobile Top Ten. These challenges start simple and increment in difficulty as bad fixes become closer to being good fixes. However, the scope of bad fix examples that are presented in Security Shepherd are a fraction of what's possible. So drop in and lay out any of the security gaps you can think of in applications, no matter how simple or complex they are. It could be a XSS blacklist filter, session management flaw or even poor data storage on a mobile device. If participants want to get their hands dirty and implement their idea into a challenge, that would be more than welcome across the session.

14:00 - 16:00 - Mobile Application Challenges without Hard Coded keys Implement a mechanism where a user can log into a Security Shepherd server through a Mobile Challenge Application to facilitate user specific keys to be presentated. This mechanism would need to be crafted so it cannot be exploited to return keys for security challenges without completing the level.

Open discussion of the OWASP Security Labeling system project proposal (secure code, privacy, ingredients, and openness labels) -Should security become visible for normal users? -Should Owasp consider providing labels and certifications? -Expected audience : +20 people.

  • Searching for interaction with other project leaders, and the board

Location: Room E104

09:00 – 12:00 Cornucopia - Ecommerce Website Edition – Video

The objective is to create a short "how to play the Cornucopia card game" video during this half-day session. Cornucopia is a card game that helps identify security requirements, but people may not be familiar with how easy it is to get started. Participants for this session are needed to be players, to create a narrative, to video the game being played, and if there is time and anyone has the skill, to edit the video and sound into a release version. It is preferable if participants are already a little familiar with the game and/or threat modelling. If there is time, we will also discuss alternative game strategies like a Jeopardy format.

• Storyboarding
• Game play recording
• Editing
• Soundtrack
• Publish video.

Project website: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Cornucopia

Location: Room E104

9:30 - 11:30 Hackademics test coverage

Improve unit tests coverage. Currently, unit tests cover ~20% of the platform, this session will focus on doubling the test coverage. Deliverables: 40% unit and functional tests coverage.

Location: Room E104

13:30 – 17:00 AppSensor (Code) – Dashboard

The AppSensor v2.0.0 code implementation final release was undertaken in January. One of the tasks to continue with is the development of a reporting dashboard. This session is to brainstorm ideas and layouts for the dashboard, and identify what tools/libraries can assist in the creation of the dashboard. Bring ideas, energy, URLs, paper and pens! The outputs will be dashboard mockups.

• Introductions and objectives
• Information requirements
• User stories
• Information design
• Code libraries and frameworks.

Location: Room E104

14:00 - 17:00 Hackademics - Student performance metrics visualization

Currently, the platform gathers student performance metrics in the form of how long it took them to solve challenges, how many requests, how much time idle e.t.c. However, the only way for a teacher to see the numbers is with database access.(The data is gathered for the advanced scoring functionality but it is also very useful as performance analytics). We plan to use graphing libraries to create interactive graphs to visualize the comprehension of the student performance. It's a simple front-end feature which will improve the usability of the platform.

Location: Room E104

17:00-18:00 OWASP Automated Threats to Web Applications Project - Website Owner Experiences

The OWASP Automated Threats to Web Applications Project is undertaking research and will publish its outputs immediately prior to AppSec EU 2015. This meeting seeks input from training and conference attendees on their own organisations' experiences of automated attacks:

• What types of automated attacks occur and with what frequency?
• What were the symptoms?
• How are they detected?
• What incident response measures were taken?
• What steps were undertaken to prevent or mitigate such attacks?

Participation/contribution can be anonymous or otherwise. The intention is to update the published documents during the session and if possible create additional sector-specific guidance.

Location: Room E104

10h00 - 13h00: OWASP OWTF Architecture Audit

During the past three years, OWTF has know a fast growth thanks to different GSoC projects. But the initial architecture is no more suited for the project nowadays. Identify the different elements of OWTF Define the inter-dependencies Estimate the accuracy of such dependencies Remove unnecessary dependencies Draw a better architecture for OWTF We expect to have a draft of the next architecture better suited for the needs of OWTF by the end of this session.

Location: Room E104

14h00 - 15h00: OWASP OWTF CLI Assessment

Over the past year, the development has been mostly focused on the improvement of the Web User Interface. A side effect is that currently the Command Line Interface (CLI) is broken and does not meet the objectives initially set. Test the CLI Report all commands/flags that are broken Find out the best features that the CLI should offer Gather the findings and draw a new standard for the CLI We expect to have a new standard for the CLI that will be implemented this year in order to enhance and fix its behaviors. This could be part of a GSoC project depending of the output of the session.

Location: Room E104

15h00 - 17h00: OWASP OWTF Hack It For Fun

The OWTF project is written in Python and we want to show how easy it is to hack into the code base. We propose a small workshop where the students would customize OWTF the way the want. Presentation of small code snippets Customize the console output Customize the web interface Competition about Implementing small features We expect to show how easy it is for students to hack into the code base of OWTF. As a reward, the winners of the competition will be offered nice goodies :)

Location: Room E104


Project Developments: The Good , The Bad and the Ugly

  • Inform leaders about the actual process

Location: Room E104

What is the Global Summit? Is it like AppSec or other OWASP conferences?

The OWASP Global Summit is the place where application security experts meet to discuss plans, projects and solutions for the future of application security. The Summit is not a conference - there are no talks or training seminars - this is an opportunity to do actual work to further the field of application security. We are holding the summit as part of our AppSec EU 2014 conference, but it is a separate activity from the conference itself. Participants will stay in shared accommodations and collaborate to produce tangible progress towards influencing standards, establishing roadmaps, and setting the tone for OWASP and application security for the coming years.

The Summit will consist of Summit Working Sessions with a variety of topics set by our community. Participants are free to attend any working session, but we encourage everyone to select working sessions for topics where they have the most to contribute. Anyone can attend the Summit! OWASP community members, application security experts, industry players, and developers are all welcome at the Summit. If you would like to receive a personalized invitation for yourself or another person, see the contact either Johanna Curiel ([email protected])

When is the Summit?

The Summit will be held May 19th and 20th, 2015.

Where is the Summit being held?

Amsterdam RAI is one of the largest exhibition and conference centers in the Netherlands, hosting most of international trade fairs, exhibitions, and congresses held in Amsterdam. The complex consists of 22 conference rooms and 11 halls and has a total floor space of 87,000 m². The largest hall can seat 12,900 people. The complex also includes a musical and concert theatre and underground parking space for over 3,000 cars.

OWASP SUMMIT SPONSORSHIP

So who is being funded?

The first round of sponsored attendees will be selected based on their contribution to AppSec EU. These sponsored leaders are our Project Talk Speakers and Summit Session Leaders. Leaders with funding in their projects have also decided to use those project funds to assist with the summit, and give project talks at AppSec EU. Key summit assistants were also funded as they will be key to the successful running of a 4 day summit.

What does it mean to be a “sponsored” Summit attendee?

A sponsored summit leader must prepare and chair their scheduled summit session, and a sponsored summit assistant must be available to help with on-site logistics throughout the entirety of the summit.

Why do they get funded and not me?

Some of the criteria used for selection are:

  • Location: Leaders traveling closer from the region location are given preference
  • The project must be up to date and active

EMPLOYER FUNDING/SPONSORSHIP

My employer needs an invitation letter/documentation to sponsor me to go. Where do I get this?

Please contact Samantha Groves with your request, and she will work with you on creating some personalized material for your employer/sponsor.

I need help convincing my employer to fund my Summit attendance - what should I tell them?
