OWASP Introduces Subtractive Security Top 10 to Eliminate Attack Paths and Reduce Cyber Risk
OWASP has launched the Subtractive Security Top 10 project, a security engineering initiative that shifts the focus from adding more detection controls to removing the architectural conditions that enable cyberattacks. The project, led by Christopher Frenz, promotes a straightforward premise: attackers can only exploit attack paths that exist. Instead of relying primarily on monitoring, alerting,…
