OWASP Global AppSec EU 2026 Vienna

The OWASP Top Ten has been one of the most influential resources in application security for more than two decades — shaping training, security programs, and procurement decisions around the world. In this session, we’ll unveil the newest edition of the OWASP Top Ten Critical Risks to Web Applications, explain how it was built through community input and real-world data, and show what these changes mean for you.

We will cover all ten risks, focusing more time on the new and expanded items, as well as covering 3 ‘honourable mentions’ (#11, #12, and one that we do not have data to support). We’ll wrap up with practical guidance on how to use the Top Ten in your own programs (not as a compliance checklist, but as a strategic awareness tool).

Whether you’re an application security engineer, developer, or in management, this is your chance to get ahead of the curve and help shape the conversation: the writing is open for comment, and your feedback will make a difference.
