"Avete finito di imbottire le vostre reti di firewall e altre diavolerie simili? Allora è tempo di cambiare prospettiva e rendersi conto che oggi, dopo aver messo in sicurezza il perimetro dei nostri sistemi informativi, le minacce più serie provengono dalle nostre stesse applicazioni che, a volte, non sono progettate ed implementate, tenendo conto delle migliori pratiche di sviluppo di software sicuro. In questo campo l’OWASP rappresenta un punto di riferimento costante ed una miniera di informazioni e strumenti, ed al Ministero dell’Istruzione, Università e Ricerca abbiamo imparato ad apprezzarne i materiali e le informazioni disponibili sul suo sito web, nell’ambito del nostro gruppo che si occupa di sicurezza del sistema informativo. Per conoscere le iniziative dell’OWASP, avere un’anteprima delle principali novità in tema di sicurezza del software, incontrare i maggiori esperti in questo settore, partecipate all’OWASP DAY – ITALY IV il 6 novembre prossimo a Milano, sarà un’occasione utilissima di approfondimento."

Paolo De Santis – Dirigente della Direzione Generale per gli Studi, la Statistica ed i Sistemi Informativi del MIUR

“L’OWASP Day è il luogo e il momento per incontrare altri professionisti e appassionati del settore. E’ un’opportunità per conoscere direttamente dai protagonisti le metodologie, le tecniche e gli ambiti di ricerca nel mondo della sicurezza applicativa divenuto ormai il fattore principale, insieme a quello umano, nel campo dell’Information Security. “ Massimo Trevisani—CSO IWBank

"Le conferenze OWASP in Italia rappresentano un momento importante di awareness sulla sicurezza applicativa. L'evento rappresenta un punto di riferimento in cui i professionisti dell'IT possono valutare nuovi approcci allo sviluppo sicuro del software e alla difesa delle proprie applicazioni on-line" Marco Bavazzano—CISO Telecom Italia
