OWASP In Depth: A08:2021 – Software and Data Integrity Failures
It's a three-in-one for the third last entry into our OWASP Top 10 series!
This was a new category added to the OWASP Top 10 in 2021, and like some of the other topics, it covers a broad range of risks. After a couple of readings of the official guide, I’ve identified three main topics which I believe we need to be aware of:
- Secure your infrastructure
- Secure your dependencies
- Secure your objects
You’ll note that one of these is not like the others, and I’ll explain below how “objects” fit into the bigger picture.
Let’s look at each in turn and discuss the practical steps we need to take as Laravel developers to avoid Software and Data Integrity Failures in our apps.
