OWASP

The Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP) is a nonprofit foundation that works to improve the security of software through community-led open source projects, hundreds of chapters worldwide, and educational resources. OWASP does not provide a centralized public API, but maintains many open source projects, standards (such as the OWASP Top 10 and ASVS), and tools (such as ZAP) that include APIs.

OWASP publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Application Security, Open Source, Security, Web Security, and Standards.

OWASP’s developer surface includes engineering blog, documentation, support, and 7 more developer resources.
