The German OWASP Day 2026 is a security conference focused on expert talks covering secure development, operations, testing, and organizational aspects related to web-based applications. Cross-disciplinary and non-technical topics are also encouraged. The conference is primarily intended for a German-speaking audience, though English presentations are welcome.
At this year's German OWASP day we'd again like to offer a few half day workshops (3-4 hours) for the community.
The event and the evening evening event will take place at the IHK Haus der Wirtschaft, Lammstraße 13-17, in Karlsruhe.
We suggest using public transport for your travel:
OWASP is an independent, global community committed to making web application security more visible, sharing expertise in developing and operating secure web applications, and offering resources freely available to everyone. All OWASP materials, including documents, videos, slides, and podcasts, can be used for free under an open license.
OWASP is open, inclusive, and vendor-neutral. Everyone is welcome to contribute to projects or simply benefit from the shared knowledge. A great way to get involved is by attending the OWASP Meetups, which regularly take place in many major German cities.
