NowSecure Announces Support for OWASP MASVS v2 to Empower Standards-Based Testing

NowSecure

NowSecure, the expert in standards-based mobile app security and privacy, today announced its partnership with OWASP, the community of experts in application testing standards, to deliver industry-first support for OWASP MASVS v2. Mobile AppSec teams depend on the community-driven OWASP Mobile Application Security Verification Standard (MASVS) and Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG) to craft policies for architecting, building and testing mobile apps securely. By leveraging these standards in the DevSecOps pipeline, organizations can align developer and security stakeholders to deliver more predictable, consistent and secure mobile apps faster, reducing cost and risk. In line with the launch of the next iteration of OWASP MASVS and the OWASP Global AppSec event, NowSecure has updated its solutions to support the latest version of OWASP MASVS requirements so organizations can ensure their mobile app releases meet the latest industry standards. Used by security researchers, architects and developers, the OWASP foundation is recognized as the definitive source for security standards. Since its inception, the OWASP Mobile Application Security (MAS) project, created and validated by industry experts and the broader AppSec community, has evolved the mobile app standards to bring consistency, interoperability and reliability. The OWASP MAS project combines four critical resources to provide the best risk reduction approach for mobile app teams – OWASP MASVS as a baseline of security requirements for mobile apps, OWASP MASTG to outline how to test the MASVS requirements, OWASP MAS Checklist to track security assessment tasks and OWASP MAS Crackmes as a collection of mobile reverse engineering challenges. The latest version of OWASP MASVS v2 brings instrumental updates, including: Streamlined language and wording of controls based on fundamental concepts throughout the standard to ensure it is accessible and understood by a wider audience Standard compliance testing customizable to specific needs using individual risk profiles An enhanced version of the OWASP standard in machine readable format is now enabled for full automation and can be tuned to feed into other tooling to enable broader and deeper levels of automated MASVS compliance verification. “The OWASP MASVS and MASTG set the standard for mobile app security around the globe,” said Carlos Holguera, OWASP MAS co-project lead and NowSecure security researcher. “The MASVS was designed to guide developers and security analysts on architecture, threat modeling and proper techniques to secure mobile data for safer, more efficient mobile app releases. With the new OWASP MASVS and the upcoming MASTG refactor, we're bringing a new dimension to MAS testing to bring more clarity, simplicity, and newer and deeper levels of MASVS compliance for a wider audience.” With NowSecure OWASP MASVS-enabled solutions, mobile app developers, architects and security teams can more efficiently and effectively leverage the latest recognized industry security and privacy standards. The NowSecure suite includes: NowSecure Platform offers automated policy-driven testing in the CI/CD pipeline and compliance reports mapped to the latest OWASP MASVS requirements; can be customized to fit the specific needs and risk profile of each mobile app. NowSecure Mobile Pen Testing as a Service (PTaaS) provides full coverage assessments, from threat modeling to MASTG testing, for all OWASP MASVS (L1, L2, L1+R, and L2+R) compliance requirements and expert remediation compliance support. NowSecure Academy offers access to over 60 hours of free, in-depth training on the OWASP MAS, MASVS and MASTG. Built on a foundation of more than 11,000 pen tests, 4 million+ automated mobile app assessments and more than a decade of mobile app security testing and innovation, only NowSecure is positioned to offer the right mix of solutions to ensure organizations can protect the sensitive data and security of their mobile app users and meet their compliance needs with OWASP MASVS. “The status quo for mobile app security does not protect organizations and consumers. Our analysis of millions of iOS and Android mobile apps find that 85% violate multiple OWASP MASVS requirements,” said NowSecure CEO Alan Snyder. “OWASP MASVS is the best objective measure of mobile app security and privacy in the world. It is the standard that all organizations should be using, as consumers demand assurance that they are protected. Today we’ve updated our solutions to help our customers achieve higher predictability, repeatability and efficiency in release cycles by leveraging the gold standard of OWASP MASVS.” For over seven years, NowSecure has been a foundational contributor and supporter of the OWASP mobile project and broader community, with NowSecure practitioners actively leading the specification evolution and tooling effort. Dedicated to supporting the adoption of mobile app security standards and delivering products and services that leverage OWASP specifications, NowSecure is the first and only recognized OWASP MAS Advocate and serves as an OWASP ‘God Mode’ sponsor. As co-creators of the ADA MASA and ioXT specifications and certifications, NowSecure advocated for the use of the OWASP MASVS as a proven mature standard. Today, NowSecure serves as an ADA Authorized Lab. In collaboration with both OWASP and NIST, NowSecure helped build OWASP MASVS and MASTG into NIST Requirements for mobile app testing. Through sponsorship and frequent speaking engagements at OWASP global and regional events, NowSecure provides community learning to drive adoption and helps organizations get an inside look at upcoming developments. Aligned with this launch, Sven Schleier and Carlos Holguera, OWASP mobile project co-leads, will introduce OWASP MASVS v2 during their talk at the OWASP Global AppSec Conference in Dublin on Feb. 16 at 4:30 p.m. GMT.

Minuteman Press International Founder & CEO Bob Titus Reflects on 50 Years in Business

Minuteman Press International Inc

In 2023, Minuteman Press International is proud to celebrate 50 years in business! The first Minuteman Press center opened in Plainview, NY in 1973. Roy Titus, founder of Minuteman Press along with his son Bob Titus, decided to open the shop after running a successful operation for Parent’s Magazine. While working with other printers for Parent’s Magazine, Roy realized that the printing industry was a huge market that had untapped potential. In 1973, that first Plainview shop served as a quick printing operation that filled the need for 1-color, short-run orders that needed to be done fast. From there, Roy tapped into the potential of the industry, creating the first one-stop Minuteman Press design, marketing, and printing center. Products and capabilities expanded, and over the past 50 years, Minuteman Press has continued to be at the forefront of the printing industry as leaders and innovators. It all started with that first Plainview shop in 1973, where Roy, along with his son Bob and childhood friends Jim Galasso and Dave Scadin, laid the foundation for the worldwide franchisor that Minuteman Press International is today. Bob Titus, who remains our CEO today, shares his thoughts, experiences, and memories of what it was like laying the groundwork in 1973. What was it like working in the Plainview shop in 1973? Bob Titus: “Jimmy Galasso and I ran the shop together, and a couple of months later we brought in Dave Scadin. I have known both of them since I was 6-years-old. I came home from college, and Jimmy was working at a sporting goods store. He came to our house and when my dad offered him the job, he said yes. We needed someone else down the road, and that’s when Dave joined us after working for the Town of Oyster Bay. Originally, Dave was making deliveries for us, but one day our press broke. Dave came into the shop and told us to get out of the way. He fixed the press and from that point forward he was our press operator. Over the years, we’ve had 36 people from Oyster Bay High School and St. Dominic’s High School work with us. It all stemmed from us as childhood friends working together and then expanding from there. It’s been an incredible ride.” What was it like working with your dad Roy Titus? How did you get started running the shop? Bob Titus: “My dad and I didn’t work in the shop together but he would come in and give us great ideas. He was really smart, and did things like start our marketing program and add pickup and delivery as a service to our customers. For me, this all started with my dad hiring an old-time printer named Tom, who taught me and Jimmy Galasso how to run the press and do bindery work. One day, a real estate customer came into the Plainview shop and my dad happened to be there. They wanted flyers printed and delivered down the street to their office once the job was done. Tom said we don’t do delivery, and my dad stepped in and said that yes, we’ll deliver the job once it’s finished. Tom said we wouldn’t want to get into delivery, and Roy disagreed. My dad saw this as a great service we could provide that would make it easy for customers to do business with us. He also decided that we don’t have to wait for customers to come in, and that we can go to the customers ourselves. At the time, the huge commercial printers were looking for home run clients, and they were not going door to door. We started going door to door, starting in the retail area, and we were picking up business.” “The two biggest things we did to really get the shop going strong were: Marketing to the customers, going to them and not waiting for them to come to us; Adding pickup and delivery options at a time where others just weren’t doing that. My dad always told us to never say no to the customer. No matter what the customer wants, get it for them.” -Bob Titus How did Minuteman Press originally grow from there into a franchise? Bob Titus: “First, our Plainview shop went from an AB Dick 1-color press to an older Multi-Graphic Press that really improved the quality of the work we were doing. When we opened the second Farmingdale store, we purchased a new Multi-Graphic Press along with our first 3M camera that lead to us implementing the franchise model for other shops. We found that the 3M company invented a plastic plate camera where the plastic plates would cost about the same as a paper platemaker. The plastic plates allowed for metal plate quality that wouldn’t stretch and allowed for 2-color printing. The salesman told us the camera could help us produce 2, 3, and 4-color printing with plastic plates that don’t stretch like paper plates, and he was right. The cameras did everything the salesman said they could do. We first hired Mike Jutt as our press operator for the Farmingdale shop, where we first used the press with the 3M camera. He did a great job and the Farmingdale center became the prototype for the Minuteman Press franchise. When we started franchising, we asked Mike to create the training program to teach the owners our system. He created and implemented the training program, and he’s done an absolutely fabulous job for 50 years. Mike ultimately became our Executive VP & Director of Training, and is still going strong today.” “I want to share one quick story from our Farmingdale shop. This speaks to the importance of being involved in the community and joining local clubs and organizations. At that time, Farmingdale merchants held their Hardscrabble Day. Families would come to the event and one year, they needed to hire a clown at the last minute. My dad volunteered to pay for the clown, who would blow up balloons for the kids and put smiles on their faces. The families were happy, the merchants saw us as saviors for stepping in to help, and many of them started using us for their printing. That $50 investment and ‘saving the day’ lead to a lot of business.” -Bob Titus “Because the press and camera worked so well in Farmingdale, my dad ordered another one for our Plainview shop, and then a third one. When the head honchos at 3M saw that we had purchased 3 cameras in 6 months, they paid us a visit to see what we were doing. On their end, they were having trouble selling the cameras because other printers were reluctant to change. They said we had a terrific idea for using these cameras and suggested we franchise. 3M really believed in our concept and our program, and so they offered financing to new owners. They allowed the owners to form a shell corporation so that they wouldn’t have personal liability. We then went to a franchise show at the NY Coliseum, just looking to put people into business in the Tri-State Area, and we would support those owners. At that show, we had one prospect who wanted to open in Boston, and another one who wanted to open in Los Angeles. At first, we said no to going out of state, but they were persistent. At that point, my dad reached out to six quality people who had worked for him in the past, who had sons that were around my age. My dad felt this would be a great business for a father and son, and he was able to hire them. He had them go to six different cities - Boston, Cleveland, Chicago, Atlanta, Denver, and Los Angeles – and hire a press operator. They ran these Minuteman Press shops with the press and 3M cameras, and followed our business model. Then, they franchised and supported the new stores that opened around them while also working in their own shops. As these cities expanded with more franchises, we could no longer run our own stores while supporting the new owners. That is when we made the decision to sell those original shops we owned and support the owners full-time. We had the press operator, the marketing person, and the regional vice president for those locations, and that’s how our local support teams were originally formed. Ultimately, we sold hundreds of 3M cameras, and they also were able to sell the ancillary materials needed for those cameras. This really helped us get going as a franchise, and the company-owned stores became profitable very quickly because of the new marketing program we introduced. As we generated more and more business and sold those satellite stores, that’s how we created the support teams that laid the groundwork for our regional teams today.” What are some the key ways that Minuteman Press has evolved over the years? Bob Titus: “One of the biggest changes we’ve ever made was when my dad introduced the royalty cap to our owners around 1977-78. The owners thought we were crazy, but what happened is that this really incentivized our owners to sell more and more. At the time, we saw owners who were making 15K/month at the time start selling 20, 30, 40K, 50K. My dad sent them a letter and told them to act as if you’re paying the full royalties, and use that money to reinvest and build the business. Many of our owners bought into this idea. They appreciated the royalty cap but also understood how important it was to hire that extra marketing person, or add that piece of equipment, etc.” Other key changes Bob noted are: We originally created manual price lists that went from 50 to 1,000 copies, for 1-color printing on 8.5 x 11, 8.5 x 14, or 11 x 17. Eventually, we decided to develop pricing software. Our original pricing software was on a Tandy 1000 from Radio Shack. It was developed by an owner in Dallas, Texas, who had a computer background and previously worked for EDS (Electronic Data Systems). We then hired IT people to create our first software program. This laid the groundwork and planted the seeds to what is the incredibly dynamic FLEX pricing and management software today. When copiers were invented in the 1970s, people wrongly predicted that all of the printers would go out of business. Instead, when Xerox machines were introduced, printers bought the machines and grew their sales. To this day, our partnerships with Xerox and Konica-Minolta have been a tremendous asset to our owners. Everything we’ve done / added from a products and services standpoint has worked. We would add new products based on what our owners would be farming out. That’s how we added apparel and promotional products, as it just made sense to add those based on what they were selling. Other key changes and points of growth include direct mail / EDDM, digital printing, wide format printing. “We started this business by filling a void for our clients. To this day, we continue to fill that void in different areas that make sense and meet their needs.” -Bob Titus Is there anything else you’d like to share? Bob Titus: “My dad was president of Minuteman Press for the first 20 years, and we were in pure growth mode in terms of opening new franchise locations. We expanded from the USA into Canada, and I even ran the Toronto office for two years. For the next 25 years of our history, I was president of the company. We expanded even further internationally to the UK, Australia, and South Africa. I felt that my job was to improve on existing services and add services that made the most sense for our owners. We would conduct studies and see what’s next, then implement new items to benefit our owners. Everything we did and still do, we always try to think of how we can best help them. For over 3 years now, my son Nick has been president of the company. He took over for me just 3 months before the pandemic. Looking back on it now, this is one of the best decisions we made to elevate him to president when we did. There is no way I could have carried us through the way he did. Everything he did and everything our team did was just tremendous. There were daily communications, the Bounce Back program, and so much hard work and dedication. His vision helped all of us adapt. Even though I already knew this, it just assured me that everybody’s in great hands.” Bob concludes: “Looking back, I think of the longtime owners that helped us build the company. And then I think of every owner out there who has since helped us build, whether they realize it or not. We are all like family, and we’re in this together. Let me also say that what makes me feel so gratified is when the business is turned over from parents to their kids. It’s always such a great feeling to see a business that people worked really hard to build carry through to the next generation. I know that from experience, as both a son and as a dad. Over 50 years… it’s certainly been an incredible ride.” For more information on Minuteman Press products and services and to find your local Minuteman Press franchise, visit https://minuteman.com.

OxAI provides unparalleled services at very reasonable prices and ensures proficiency of work before the monetary exchange takes place. Tokenomics The OxAI protocol offers two types of tokens, OXAI and eOXAI. Individuals staking OXAI tokens are given voting rights in the OxAI DAO (decentralized autonomous organization). These community members can influence key decisions related to governing. Escrowed OXAI or eOXAI are staked tokens that remain locked for 1 year. Holders of eOXAI tokens are given access to OXAI tiers. Countless benefits are associated with each tier. AI Tiers The firm adopts a unique method of operation. Users holding the eOXAI token are given different ranks or tiers. Each tier is accompanied by a distinguished bot. The higher the tier the more exhilarating the bot becomes. Not only this but user ranks are directly linked to the number of times that a person can avail of AI-mediated services. The highest tier is the Cosmic Bull which uses Defi Alpha AI and grants 300 requests per month. Blockchain AI Relay The OxAI relay is a structure where AI operators get to sell their expertise. AI operators whose services are most frequently used by community members may benefit from performance fees that are paid to them. OxAI Bots The CyberStream AI Connection of the firm allows AI to manage computational work based on prevailing market trends, information, and expert analysis. AI Unleashed for example is a great AI bot that uses the current information that is available online to and proceeds with computation accordingly. Trader AI is another sublime bot that analyzes the in-process market transactions and offers the appropriate response. Operator Network OxAI provides an exciting opportunity for anyone to become an AI operator by registering their services on the operator network. The operators are given a free hand to make use of any AI application that they want. These operators may earn a substantial amount if their services get widely accepted by the general population. Reputation System The firm introduces a system where members through the use of likes and dislikes can either have an operator removed or boosted to a higher position. Users can submit their signatures after using a particular operator which will be recorded on a digital ledger. These signatures can either act as likes or dislikes. When the month comes to an end, the operator who gets the highest number of likes will receive additional benefits while operators with an influx of dislikes will be delisted. OxAI DAO The decentralized autonomous organization of OxAI operated and headed by token stakers is entrusted with the task of devising administrative rules and regulations.
