Want to Start a new Project?

Every project begins with an Idea. Developing your project idea is the first step into producing a project. Running a successful OWASP project is not a simple task however, that's why is important to take the time to research and develop that idea into a tangible, sustainable project.

Developing the idea into a tangible project

The first phase is research. There are many projects at incubator phase at OWASP and probably some of these projects match or are very similar to the project you would like to execute. Therefore is very important to research if there are existing projects doing the same . Bringing a project to completion can be a challenging task and the more people join that effort, the better chances it has to succeed.

Submit your Idea

We know that looking into so many projects is also a lot of work, that's why we have created the Ideas Board. If you have an idea, Please submit it here: https://groups.google.com/a/owasp.org/forum/?hl=en#!forum/owasp-project-ideas

Contact Claudia Aviles Casanovas [[email protected]], Project coordinator who can help you setup a project idea wiki page: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_PROJECT_IDEAS_Template

IDEAS

Here are some ideas to get you started

OWASP Framework Security Project

The OWASP Framework Security Project focuses on understanding missing security controls within popular frameworks, and coordinating with developers and the framework leaders to effectively integrate the missing security controls. This project requires the collaboration between security experts, security minded developers, and framework developers and leaders. The primary deliverable of this project is source code that is accepted into frameworks. The OWASP Framework Security Project will maintain documentation to indicate with security controls have been accepted, and links to code and documentation at each framework. For more information, please contact the Project leader, Michael Coates. https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Framework_Security_Project

From Idea to Execution - Starting a Project(Incubator)

Once you have developed the idea into a concrete project, then you or your team will be ready to submit this as an Incubator project. https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Project#tab=Starting_a_New_Project
