Securing Modern Application Development
How much do you know about modern application development (MAD)? Traditional software development models simply can't keep up with demand.
People & Skills
Upskilling: The Missing Link to Close the Security Gap for AppSec
We continue to face an enormous shortfall in security-aware developers. Rather than investing in more tools, is upskilling the answer?
AppSec
Maturity at Scale in AppSec
AppSec programs strive toward Maturity at Scale: orchestration and correlation, machine learning and AI, shifting DAST left, and more.
API Security
Securing Your APIs: What You Need to Know
Modern attack surfaces are evolving as API use increases. Vulnerable APIs make their way into production with a negative impact downstream.
Process Automation
Best Practices for Implementing Intelligent Automation
In the webinar we talk about intelligent process automation: a combination of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic process automation (RPA).
DevSecOps
The Importance of Developer Driven Security
We explore best practices to build and implement a cohesive developer security program that simplifies and speeds up software releases.

Frequently asked questions
What is AppSec NL?+
AppSec NL is a free community of experts on Application Development, Security and Process Automation in The Netherlands. Members get access to live webinars, keynotes, original research and the Mythos Readiness Scan.
What is the Mythos Readiness Report?+
The Mythos Readiness Report is a free 2026 research report on how AI is reshaping software supply chain security. It combines platform telemetry, original research and a survey of 80+ CISOs in the United States, and defines four stages of readiness.
What is a hardened image?+
A hardened image is a checked and safe build of an open source framework or base image. It strips out the components you don't need, pins what remains and is verified before it ships — so the vulnerabilities that aren't there can't be exploited.
How much of an open source framework do teams actually use?+
Around 1%. Teams import a full open source framework, use roughly 1% of it, and ship the remaining 99% as unmanaged attack surface. That unused code is potential risk: every unused component is a CVE waiting for a reason.
Are AppSec NL webinars free?+
Yes. All AppSec NL webinars are free, live online sessions. Register with your name, company and email and you'll receive the join link by email.
