If you work in application security, you’re probably familiar with the OWASP Top 10. But open-source frameworks like those maintained by OWASP members have a lot to offer security practitioners.

In this episode of the Cybersecurity Sessions podcast, Netacea CISO Andy Ash meets OWASP Global Board Member and London Chapter Leader Sam Stepanyan to find out how Sam got involved with OWASP, and the influence it has on the security world.

The duo is also joined by Netacea’s Cyril Noel-Tagoe, who is a core contributor to the BLADE Framework, an open-source project focused on defining business logic attack tactics and techniques.
