Topic: Meeting OWASP Compliance to Ensure Secure Code
Due to the increase in the complexity of cyberattacks, different businesses are investing more resources than ever to secure their systems from reputational and financial losses. One of the most used security testing techniques is web application penetration testing. Penetration testing, specifically in the web application domain, is the process of testing for vulnerabilities by simulating attacks on them. It helps verify systems’ security, identify any vulnerabilities and the scope of the damage, and develop strategies to mitigate potential threats.
During this presentation, Aleksandar Bjelošević, Senior Tester from Endava, will share his thoughts on OWASP's (Open Web Application Security Project) Top 10 Web Application Penetration Testing Checklist:
