About
What is ASVS?
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. There are three main parts to ASVS. ASVS defines (1) levels of application-level security verification that increase in breadth and depth as one moves up the levels, (2) verification requirements that prescribe a unique white-list approach for security controls, and (3) reporting requirements that ensure reports are sufficiently detailed to make verification repeatable. OWASP ASVS is the first standard that OWASP has published, and ASVS is the first internationally-recognized standard for performing application security assessments! There are currently versions in English.
What are some examples of how ASVS can be used?
Here are three examples:
- Web application developers can use ASVS as a yardstick with which to assess the degree of trust that can be placed in their web applications,
- Security control developers can use ASVS as guidance as to what to build into controls in order to satisfy web application security requirements, and
- ASVS can be used as a basis for specifying web application security verification requirements in contracts.
What's new?

- OWASP ASVS was presented by Dave Wichers at OWASP Software Assurance Day DC 2009 in conjunction with the Software Assurance Forum sponsored by the US Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense and National Institute of Standards and Technology.
