Free Virtual Training Class: The "softer side" of Application SecurityAre you a developer looking to gain some insight into Application Security but just don't know where to start? If so, then this class is for you! Bill Sempf, Application Security Architect and Author, will be guiding participants on a 3 hour journey through the softer side of application security. Bill's description of the class content: In this kinder and gentler training, we won't break into anything (for a change). Instead, we'll talk about working with developers and information security to make our lives better. We'll start with information disclosure vulnerabilities, and how to mitigate them, then we'll pivot into SDLC arrangements and setting up an application security department. There will be a lot of "well duh" moments, several provocative statements, and lots of discussion. What's more, we'll get to use the new OWASP GoToTraining environment, which I hope all of you will use to teach me something! All in all, a good time for all - hope to see you there. The free virtual training class will be 1-June-2016 at 12 noon EDT. Space is limited so sign up soon. Seats for the live training will be allocated first to OWASP members. Not a member? CLICK HERE for information on OWASP membership. The training will be recorded and made available after the live presentation. Please register here: OWASP needs your input!The OWASP Foundation has begun the process to improve the critical infrastructure and system platforms for the Global organization. The OWASP website, built on mediawiki, has become overloaded with content. We are looking at ways to improve the layout and navigation of the wiki. We want your input and want you to provide some feedback on how you use the wiki and how you think it can be improved. Please take 5 minutes and complete this short SURVEY CLICK HERE for a 10 minute presentation on the project that was given at the NYC chapter meeting. |

Do you know SAMM?OWASP SAMM (Software Assurance Maturity Model) is an open framework to help organizations formulate and implement a strategy for software security that is tailored to the specific risks facing the organization. SAMM helps you:
The much anticipated SAMM 1.1 was released in March 2016. Read the entire press release HERE. Last month, contributors from 18 different cities in Belgium, France, Germany and the United States met in New York, NY for the second annual SAMM summit. The SAMM contributors, led by Seba Deleersnyder and Bart De Win reviewed the 1.1 release, outlined improvements for the in-process 1.2 release (expected release date - June 2016), and created the roadmap for SAMM 2.0 (expected release date - June 2017). Are you ready to get involved? The SAMM team collaborates virtually every 2nd Wednesday of the month. Call details and minutes/agenda from previous calls can be found on the Community tab of the project webpage. If you are unable to participate in the meetings, but still want to support SAMM, you can allocate a portion of your individual membership fees to the project or make a donation here. Companies and other organizations who wish to support this project, please CONTACT US for additional information and options. New Incubator Projects
