'''What is ASVS?'''
+
''OWASP Standards Initiatives''
  
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.

Application Security Verification Standards are specifications produced by OWASP in cooperation with secure applications developers and verifiers worldwide for the purpose of accelerating the deployment of secure web applications. First published in 2008 as a result of an OWASP Summer of Code grant and meetings with a small group of early adopters, the ASVS documents have become widely referenced and implemented.
  
* 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,

Further development of ASVS occurs through mailing list discussions and occasional workshops, and suggestions for improvement are welcome. For more information, please [mailto:[email protected] contact us].
* 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.

Application Security Verification Standards (ASVS)

Application Security Verification Standards are specifications produced by OWASP in cooperation with secure applications developers and verifiers worldwide for the purpose of accelerating the deployment of secure web applications. First published in 2008 as a result of an OWASP Summer of Code grant and meetings with a small group of early adopters, the ASVS documents have become widely referenced and implemented.

Further development of ASVS occurs through mailing list discussions and occasional workshops, and suggestions for improvement are welcome. For more information, please contact us.
