What is the OWASP Top 10?
Throughout this course, you will hear me reference OWASP Top 10. OWASP, or Open Worldwide Application Security Project, is this online community that puts out free resources to keep applications more secure. One of their most powerful projects is this top 10 list of the most serious vulnerabilities to applications. This report is updated periodically, and it's really interesting to see different vulnerabilities becoming more of a concern, while others being more addressed. Now, if you look at the top, you'll see broken access control, and as you make your way down, you'll see things that are very, very common these days, such as injection and server side request forgery. If you click on any of these vulnerabilities, you can see more details about it, such as explanations and examples, and how you can prevent some of these vulnerabilities from impacting your application.
