Name: OWASP Supporting Legacy Web Applications in the Current Environment Project (home page)
Purpose: Supporting Legacy Web Applications in the current environment.

Legacy web applications are a reality in life. Even now, there are several out there some of them supporting sensitive business area like banking, insurance, marketing and idea generation. As these applications get outsourced for maintenance, security becomes a crucial aspect both from a perspective of outsourcing and the inherent vulnerabilities of the web app. Added to this is the people aspect of lack of knowledge of security. Typically there is a gap between developers maintaining the application and the security personnel who help the developers in making the app more secure. I would like to highlight these challenges and bring forth the critical security points in legacy web apps.
