Code Projects

OWASP Amass

An open source framework that helps information security professionals perform network mapping of attack surfaces and external asset discovery using open source intelligence gathering and reconnaissance techniques!

OWASP Defectdojo

The leading open source application vulnerability management tool built for DevOps and continuous security integration.

OWASP Dependency-Check

Dependency-Check is a Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tool suite that identifies project dependencies and checks if there are any known, publicly disclosed, vulnerabilities.

OWASP Dependency-Track

Intelligent Component Analysis platform that allows organizations to identify and reduce risk in the software supply chain.
