Simon Bennetts, a distinguished engineer at Jit,
discusses one of the flagship projects of OWASP: the Zed Attack
Proxy (ZAP) open source security testing tool. As ZAP's primary
maintainer, Simon traces the tool's origins and shares some
anecdotes with SE Radio host Priyanka Raghavan on why there was a
need for it. They take a deep dive into ZAP's features and its
ability to integrate with CI/CD, as well as shift security left.
Bennetts also considers what it takes to build a successful open
source project before spending time on ZAP's ability to script to
provide richer results. Finally, the conversation ends with some
questions on ZAP's future in this AI-powered world of bots.
