Less than 10 Minutes Series - ModSecurity Core Rule Set Project

Author: The OWASP Podcast Series May 12, 2017 Duration: 8:01
This segment of the "Less than 10 Minutes" series was recorded live at AppSec EU 2017 in Belfast. It is an update of the ModSecurity Core Rule Set Project with project co-lead Christian Folini. The OWASP ModSecurity CRS Project's goal is to provide an easily "pluggable" set of generic attack detection rules that provide a base level of protection for any web application. The OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set (CRS) is a set of generic attack detection rules for use with ModSecurity or compatible web application firewalls. The CRS aims to protect web applications from a wide range of attacks, including the OWASP Top Ten, with a minimum of false alerts.

Tune in to The OWASP Podcast Series for genuine conversations that go beyond the headlines of cybersecurity. Instead of dry lectures, you'll hear from the people actually building, testing, and defending the software that shapes our world. Each episode sits down with a different practitioner or innovator, pulling insights directly from their daily work and long-term vision. The discussions are grounded in the real challenges of application security, offering practical knowledge and forward-thinking strategies. This podcast provides a unique audio space to understand the evolving threats and defensive techniques critical for our digital infrastructure. You’ll find the dialogue is both technical and accessible, demystifying complex topics through the experiences of those on the front lines. The goal is to share actionable wisdom from the OWASP community and its extended network, focusing on how to create more resilient systems. By listening, you gain a deeper appreciation for the ongoing effort required to secure technology for everyone. It’s an essential resource for developers, security professionals, and anyone curious about the foundational work of safeguarding our connected future. The series turns abstract concepts into tangible lessons, all through the voices of the individuals dedicated to this crucial mission.
