Hello everyone, we're excited to invite you to the OWASP Frankfurt Chapter Meetup #77!
Our OWASP Chapter serves central Germany, particularly within the Rhine-Main (Hesse) region, as a platform to discuss and share information on application security topics.
Anyone interested and enthusiastic about application security or security in general is welcome. All meetings are free and open. You do not have to be an OWASP member to attend our event.
What are we going to talk about?
#1 From Scan to Advisory - Building an End2End Software Supply Chain Security Toolchain using Open Source (Jan Thielscher)
Software supply chain security is now mandated by regulations like EU CRA and US EO 14028. This talk covers the requirements along the full chain - SCA, SBOM generation, vulnerability management, and CSAF advisories - and introduces a concept using open source tools.
#2 Securing Claude Code - Guardrails for AI-Assisted Development (Jim Manico)
AI coding assistants are now part of software development, but most teams still deploy them without meaningful security controls. This talk shows how to use Claude Code safely in real engineering environments through proper repository setup, machine-readable requirements, structured prompts, reusable skills, and workflow discipline based on Issue - Plan - Code. It also covers practical guardrails such as hooks, managed settings, sandboxing, and review controls, along with the current attack surface around AI-assisted development, including prompt injection, plugin and MCP abuse, insecure generated code, and permission bypasses. The goal is to show how coding agents can be guided toward secure code up front and then constrained, monitored, and verified before they become another unmanaged attack surface.
Socializing Opportunities: There will be plenty of time to socialize before and after the event.
Afterwards? We will begin and conclude the evening with the opportunity to socialize at the venue with free food and both cold & hot drinks.
When? Our Meetup takes place on 21.10.2026 from 18.00 to 22.00 o'clock CEST.
