Security Champion Example Activities 🦸‍♀️

Ensure that all your code is being scanned by SAST

Ensure all your projects code is scanned by a SAST (ex. by Snyk) + and all developers are using a linter

Define security requirements

Have a look at our security requirements-page and define some for your project.

Threat Modelling activities

  • Facilitate a threat modelling session with your team - looking at the high level architecture of your system(s)
  • Introduce "Abuser stories" for all your tasks (ex add it some template you are using for detailing tasks)

Have the team work through the OWASP Juice Shop

OWASP JuiceShop is a great resource for security training and getting familiar with OWASP Top Ten. There are many ways to utilize this project for training, with some of them being:

  • Run it in CTF-mode, and agree on what challenges are to be solved during this sprint. At the end of the sprint, go through the challenges
  • Set aside a couple of days for going through the challenges together
  • Go though one challenge each stand-up

Check out the OWASP ASVS

OWASP ASVS is a collection of web application technical security controls and requirements. Have a look and see if this makes sense to use for your project :)

Manually security test your application
