PROJECT INFORMATION
Project Name OWASP Enterprise Security API (ESAPI) Project
Short Project Description

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. The ESAPI Toolkit architecture is very simple – a collection of classes that encapsulate the key security operations most applications need. ESAPI is designed to make it easy to retrofit security into existing applications, as well as providing a solid foundation for new development. ESAPI comes with an ESAPI filter that minimizes the changes required to your base application. There are ESAPI Toolkits for the following platforms:

  • Java EE - This version of the ESAPI Toolkit is currently available.
  • .NET - This version of the ESAPI Toolkit is currently under development.
  • PHP - This version of the ESAPI Toolkit is currently under development.
