The document discusses the security risk of misconfigured systems known as Khartoum. It notes that system administrators, database administrators, and developers sometimes leave security holes in the configuration of computer systems. Misconfigurations can occur at various levels, including the platform, web server, application server, frameworks, and custom code. The document provides examples of misconfiguration risks and recommends securely configuring all aspects of a system to prevent exploitation.
Misconfiguration is define as configuration mistakes that results in unintended application behavior that includes misuse of default passwords, privileges, and excessive debugging information disclosure
The Open Web Application Security Project, is an online community that produces freely-available articles, methodologies, documentation, tools, and technologies in the field of web application security.
One of those projects, The OWASP Top Ten, provides a powerful awareness document for web application security. The OWASP Top Ten represents a broad consensus about what the most critical web application security flaws are.
The OWASP team recently released the 2017 revised and updated version of the ten most critical web application security risks and so we’ve created these flash cards for you, your friends, and your colleagues (especially product and engineering :) to test your knowledge and learn more about these important issues.
Company-wide security awareness is a powerful way to improve the overall security of your organization. So adorn your waiting rooms, cubicles, and snack rooms with these flash cards for easy learning and remembrance.
Oh, WASP! Security Essentials for Web AppsTechWell
The past few years have seen a rapid increase in business efficiency through Web-based applications. Unfortunately, a dramatic increase in the number of web application vulnerabilities has followed. Insecure web applications can be disastrous for mission critical businesses and users' sensitive data. More than 70 percent of security vulnerabilities are due to flaws in the application rather than firewall breaches. Bennie Paul explains how security testing has become an indispensable part of the SDLC for businesses operating online today. OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) provides open source tools, code, and materials to develop, test, and maintain application security. Monitoring the “OWASP Top 10” web application security flaws is highly recommended as part of an organization’s testing methodology. Vulnerabilities identified are compared against the organization’s security objectives and regulations, and categorized accordingly for remediation. Benny guides you through the OWASP vulnerabilities, technique, framework, and preventive measures that you can adopt for building better software.

The Complete Web Application Security Testing ChecklistCigital
Did you know that the web is the most common target for application-level attacks? That being said, if you have ever been tasked with securing a web application for one reason or another, then you know it’s not a simple feat to accomplish. When securing your applications, it’s critical to take a strategic approach. This web application security testing checklist guides you through the testing process, captures key testing elements, and prevents testing oversights.
Tailor your approach and ensure that your testing strategy is as effective, efficient, and timely as possible with these six steps:
This webcast's agenda is:
1. Introduction to the OWASP Top TEN.
2. How to integrate the OWASP Top Ten in your SDLC.
3. How the OWASP Top Ten maps to compliance, standards and other drivers.
Secure web programming plus end users' awareness are the last line of defense against attacks targeted at the corporate systems, particularly web applications, in the era of world-wide web.
Most web application attacks occur through Cross Site Scripting (XSS), and SQL Injection. On the other hand, most web application vulnerabilities arise from weak coding with failure to properly validate users' input, and failure to properly sanitize output while displaying the data to the visitors.
The literature also confirms the following web application weaknesses in 2010: 26% improper output handling, 22% improper input handling, and 15% insufficient authentication, and others.
Abdul Rahman Sherzad, lecturer at Computer Science Faculty of Herat University, and Ph.D. student at Technical University of Berlin gave a presentation at 12th IT conference on Higher Education for Afghanistan in MoHE, and then conducted a seminar at Hariwa Institute of Higher Education in Herat, Afghanistan introducing web application security threats by demonstrating the security problems that exist in corporate systems with a strong emphasis on secure development. Major security vulnerabilities, secure design and coding best practices when designing and developing web-based applications were covered.
The main objective of the presentation was raising awareness about the problems that might occur in web-application systems, as well as secure coding practices and principles. The presentation's aims were to build security awareness for web applications, to discuss the threat landscape and the controls users should use during the software development lifecycle, to introduce attack methods, to discuss approaches for discovering security vulnerabilities, and finally to discuss the basics of secure web development techniques and principles.

OWASP Top 10 Proactive Controls 2016 - PHP Québec August 2017Philippe Gamache
OWASP Top 10 Proactive Controls 2016
Insecure software is undermining our financial, healthcare, defense, energy, and other critical infrastructure worldwide. As our digital, global infrastructure gets increasingly complex and interconnected, the difficulty of achieving application security increases exponentially. We can no longer afford to tolerate relatively simple security problems.
The goal of the OWASP Top 10 Proactive Controls project is to raise awareness about application security by describing the most important areas of concern that software developers must be aware of. We encourage you to use the OWASP Proactive Controls to get your developers started with application security. Developers can learn from the mistakes of other organizations.

The goal of the Top 10 project is to raise awareness about application security by identifying some of the most critical risks facing organizations. The Top 10 project is referenced by many standards, books, tools, and organizations, including MITRE, PCI DSS, DISA, FTC, and many more. This release of the OWASP Top 10 marks this project’s eighth year of raising awareness of the importance of application security risks. The OWASP Top 10 was first released in 2003, minor updates were made in 2004 and 2007, and this is the 2010 release.
OWASP CSRF Protector has been implemented as a php library and an Apache 2.2.x module which helps web developer/ system administrator to mitigate CSRF vulnerability in their web application with ease.
