Building Secure Apps...

 We did a bunch of Application Security development training over the past 6 months.
You can find it here
On the 6th April we have a Secure Ruby development class running in conjunction with the IISF (iisf.ie) which is all but sold out.

 Link to the event in April is here:

The HSE Data Breach and the State of Irish Cyber Security Many years ago, shortly after I founded the Irish chapter of OWASP ( http://www.owasp.org ) (in 2007??) we were delivering free application and software development classes to anyone who wanted them. It was a local low key affair but every class we delivered was "sold out". We have 60-80 folks mostly developers willing to spend 4-5 hours on learning the fundamentals of secure application development and testing. I suppose we felt cyber security was an important issue because that's what we did. At the time many folks in business felt cyber security was an overhead or a "tax" and did not give it much time. A few years later (late 2010) when the the foundation of the NCSC (National Cyber Security Centre) was announced, a few of us (local OWASP Ireland leaders) wrote a number of emails to the Irish government offering free cyber security training. As we were working for a non profit (501.3c) charity (OWA...

How Simple can it be.....XSS Prevention....

By -
Cross Site Scripting is sill a very common web vulnerability. Generally it is used to attack clients/users. It can be used for malware upload, botnet hooking, keylogging, a payload delivery system for clickjacking and CSRF attacks and much much more, all for 6 easy payments of $9.99...sorry got carried away there :) But is is easily preventable. You dont even have to know what XSS (type 0, type 1, type 2, DOM, Stored, Reflected) is to prevent it. One pretty simple way to prevent XSS is to use the OWASP ESAPI (Enterprise Security API). A very easy tool to use/invoke. It's also managed and attended to by Chris Schmidt ....A great guy... Regardless of what it does....if there was a mandate to use it on all redisplayed external input a site could become virtually XSS free!! (all for 6 easy payments of......). It's easy to deploy.... 1. Include in JSP (Java version) 2. Invoke in JSP 3. Job done!!! We include it by <%@ page import="org.owasp.esapi.ESAPI...
