Episode 121: OWASP Top 10 Threats and Controls
The OWASP Top 10 is a widely recognized list of the most critical security risks to web applications. In this episode, we walk through each entry—from injection and broken authentication to cross-site scripting, insecure deserialization, and insufficient logging. You'll learn how these vulnerabilities occur, the business impact they can have, and the recommended controls to prevent or mitigate them. We also discuss how developers and security professionals can use the OWASP Top 10 as a baseline for secure coding practices. CISSPs must understand these threats to assess application risk and implement effective defense strategies.
