The German OWASP Day 2024 is an application security conference with presentations on secure development, operation and testing as well as organization in the environment of web-based applications. Interdisciplinary, non-technical topics are also presented.
The conference is aimed at a German-speaking audience, presentations in English are welcome. Our audience are developers (“builders”), security testers (“breakers”), people who write web applications (“defenders”), IT security managers -- in short: the classic “security crowd”.
Presentations at OWASP conferences are vendor-neutral and without marketing. We offer vendors and service providers a suitable marketing platform as part of our sponsorship.
CfP closes: September 22, 2024
Notification to submitters by October 7, 2024
Conference: November 13, 2024
We accept submissions exclusively online via Easychair. Please provide all relevant information:
An detailed submission will help the program committee to make their decision.
For presentation proposals we ask for a short abstract and, if available, a preliminary version of the presentation.
The abstract should not be less than 600 characters long. Please pay attention to spelling in all information you provide, as both will appear in the program as is.
Presentations are expected to last 20 or 40 minutes, plus 5 minutes of discussion. A preference on the length must be stated in the CfP.
In addition, there will probably be one or two slots with three lightning talks each: 10 minutes presentation, 2-4 minutes discussion.
All topics related to (web) application security are welcome, in particular:
The slides of the talks will be published under a free license on the conference website after the conference.
In addition, all talks will be recorded and published on the YouTube channel of the German OWASP Chapter.
If you do not wish to be recorded, please indicate this in the comments section of your submission.
Please choose either German or English as your presentation language. Please use the language you are fluent in.
The OWASP speaker agreement applies to all submitters.

Please no “marketing pitches”; neither on the slides nor verbally. The slides must not contain any non-free content.
