Securing software
made in Switzerland.
We are the Swiss chapter of the Open Worldwide Application Security Project, a vendor-neutral community of engineers, researchers and defenders advancing the state of software security.
Our mission
Make application security visible, so that every organisation in Switzerland, from startups to public services, can build and operate software that earns its users' trust.
-
Share knowledge
Talks, workshops and study groups on threat modelling, secure coding and modern defences.
-
Build community
A welcoming local network of practitioners, researchers, students and curious newcomers, across the language regions.
-
Advance the craft
We contribute to OWASP projects, surface Swiss research, and help raise the floor of security across the ecosystem.
-
Stay independent
Free to attend, no sales pitches, no tracking. Vendor-neutral by charter and by habit.
Leadership team
