About
Whereas the OWASP Top Ten Project is a tool that provides web application security awareness, the OWASP "Application Security Verification Standard" (also known as "ASVS") is a commercially-workable open standard that defines ranges in coverage and levels of rigor that can be used to perform application security verifications. It is the very first standard that OWASP has published! There are currently versions in English.
What becomes quickly apparent during procurement when attempting to capture contractual terms and conditions related to the security of web applications and web services is that specifying security analysis and testing requirements is very hard. It also becomes quickly apparent when reviewing web application and web service security verification reports that there is no way to tell the difference between someone running a grep tool, and someone doing painstaking code review and manual testing.
Both of these problems have a single root cause: the lack of a standard for performing application-level security verification that is web application and web service independent, Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) independent, and that can be used for any application without special interpretation. The OWASP ASVS was designed to normalize the range in coverage and level of rigor available in the market when it comes to performing application security verification.
Where did ASVS come from?
The OWASP ASVS project is led by Mike Boberski (Booz Allen Hamilton). The primary authors are Mike Boberski, Jeff Williams (Aspect Security), and Dave Wichers (Aspect Security). The ASVS is the result of the collection and consolidation of decades of collective subject matter expertise in application security. If you’d like to volunteer to help on the project, you can contact Mike Boberski.
