Introduction to the OWASP Top 10

This video introduces the background to OWASP and reviews the latest version of OWASP, and finally reviews how OWASP is built.

As you may have seen on their website, the OWASP Top 10 “is a standard awareness document for developers and web application security. It represents a broad consensus about the most critical security risks to web applications” (https://owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/). In this video, you will navigate through the OWASP Top 10 project page and the necessary links you will be working through in the course.
