The #68 #OWASP #Frankfurt Chapter Meeting with Jeff Williams and Kevin Wennemuth was nothing short of inspiring! 💡 We not only tackled today’s security challenges but also took a quick detour into the fascinating history of #AppSec. It’s incredible to see just how much has evolved—and, in some ways, how little has changed—since OWASP’s inception. Key Highlights: 🔍 From Assurance-Driven to Risk-Driven Security Jeff Williams highlighted a critical shift we’re witnessing: moving from assurance-driven efforts to a risk-driven approach in security. While this focus on risk has brought some clarity to prioritizing vulnerabilities, he posed an important question: In an increasingly complex digital world, is this approach enough and sustainable? 🔒 Kevin Wennemuth shared real-life stories of companies hit by ransomware, offering a glimpse into what happens when IT infrastructures are compromised. His experiences underscored the importance of preparedness, teamwork, and effective incident response plans. He highlighted that an organization’s security culture is truly tested in the midst of these crises. Huge thanks to our welcoming host codecentric AG and Contrast Security for providing us with beverages and pizza, this would not have been possible without you! #Cybersecurity #AppSec #OWASP #DevSecOps #IncidentResponse Uwe Seiler Sebastian Rose Florian Schneider Shane Close Dan G.

2moGreat event to have Jeff as one the greatest (lit.) in AppSec history joining us for the event and Kevin as a teller of dark stories from incident response 😀 With close to 60 attendees, it was a full-house event which made it also very special for us! Thanks for the organising team and the sponsors for making this event possible! Looking forward to having more of such exciting events to come! 🎉
