Updated OWASP Top Ten (finally)

OWASP typically updates their Top Ten Web Application Security Risks about every two years, so many of us have been excited and anxious waiting for the new release (the last formal version was published in 2017). Of course, with the way things have been in 2020, a delay is certainly understandable, but it’s nice that the new edition is finally out.

Go check it out here: https://owasp.org/Top10/

For those of you studying for INFOSEC exams where questions specifically about the Top Ten might come up (for instance, the CCSK or CCSP), I don’t know if the test material has been updated to reflect the new OWASP list, or when that might happen. I imagine there will be some lag before the tests can be modified to include the 2021 content. My advice: if you plan to take the exam before January, 2022, study the OWASP 2017; anything later, use the 2021 OWASP version.

Part 2 of "How To Pass Your INFOSEC Exam"

My second Udemy course, Part 2 of “How To Pass Your INFOSEC Exam” is now live! Right now, it contains Section 4 of the series, and eventually I’ll be adding Sections 5 and 6 (hopefully, in the next couple of weeks). Then, within two months, I’ll be adding the final course in the series, Part 3, which will include Sections 7, 8, and 9. If you need some extra study materials, please come check out these courses!

New Year, New Book!

New year, new book!

If you're studying for the CCSK, I just published over 300 practice questions covering all topic areas of that exam. It might also be a useful resource for CCSP studies, too, as many of the questions will be applicable for that test.

Many thanks to Mohamed Malki for technical review and editing, the inimitable Rachel Ribando-Gros, for being the best go-to graphics pro (with the most patience!), and Robin Cabe for layout and formatting. Y'all are wonderful, and I can't thank you enough.

Enjoy!
