Abstract

The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is a globally recognized authority in identifying and addressing the top security threats facing web applications. As the digital landscape evolves, so do the security challenges. The OWASP Top-10 list, updated annually, serves as a benchmark for developers and organizations to prioritize cybersecurity risks and formulate strategies to mitigate them. The 2024 edition introduces emerging threats driven by technological advancements, evolving attack methodologies, and more sophisticated adversaries. This manuscript examines the OWASP Top-10 for 2024, with a focus on the latest threats, their potential impact, and effective mitigation strategies that organizations can employ to secure their web applications. It also explores how these risks are shaped by modern trends like AI, cloud computing, and the growing complexity of web ecosystems.
