OWASP Top 10 in plain language
The OWASP Top 10 is not a magic checklist, but it is a helpful map of the risks that appear repeatedly in web applications.
Use it to organize findings, not to replace evidence. A confirmed authentication bypass should outrank a low-impact header warning even if both appear in a security report.
Fixnx aligns scan output with this practical approach: proof first, priority second, explanation always.

FAQ
Is OWASP Top 10 only for security teams?
No. Developers, founders, DevOps teams, and product leaders can use it to understand common web application risk.
Does passing an OWASP scan mean my app is secure?
No single scan proves full security. It improves coverage and helps prioritize deeper review.
