OWASP Secure Software Development Lifecycle Project(S-SDLC)
OWASP Secure Software Development Life Cycle Project(S-SDLC) is an overall security software methodology for Web and APP developers.
Software security has now become a wider concept other than network security. There is a developing common sense that creating secured enough software is not just about individual skills but also or even more on work flows-- Software Development Life Cycle. To achieve security requires to be involved in every phase of a Secure Software Development Life Cycle.
The project’s final goal is to help users to reduce security issues, and raise the overall security level from every stage by using the methodology. Description
OWASP Secure Software Development Life Cycle Project(S-SDLC) defines security software development process as well as guides, tools, checklists and templates of activities in each phase.
The delivery will contain(not final): • Introduction: S-SDLC frame • Training guideline: Providing Security Training System • Requirements Phase: Risk Evaluation Guideline, and Requirements Criteria Doc. • Design Phase: Security Design Review Guideline and Threat Modeling Guideline. • Implement Phase: Security Coding Guide(C/C++、JAVA、PHP，C#) • Validation Phase: Actives level, Security Testing Guideline • Release/maintenance Phase: Vulnerability Management and Incident Response Guideline Detail information is in below table of content:

How can I participate in your project?
All you have to do is make the Project Leader's aware of your available time to contribute to the project. It is also important to let the Leader's know how you would like to contribute and pitch in to help the project meet it's goals and milestones. There are many different ways you can contribute to an OWASP Project, but communication with the leads is key.
If I am not a programmer can I participate in your project?
Yes, you can certainly participate in the project if you are not a programmer or technical. The project needs different skills and expertise and different times during its development. Currently, we are looking for researchers, writers, graphic designers, and a project administrator.

| OWASP S-SDLC Security Design | This part of S-SDLC will guide to deliver a doable security design to the implementation team by considering potential technical security risks. So that by avoiding the early detections of security risks, the cost to build secure products is in control. | 2017Q2-Q4 | Lance Li | (1)Best Practices of S-SDLC Security Design

| OWASP S-SDLC Security Implementation | The goal of this sub-project of OWASP S-SDLC are to:
(1) Let implementation teams do secure coding. The key is to let team understand security features of the language and framework they use, and obey the output of the S-SDLC security design (2) Let implementation teams identify and fix defects in legacy codes. The key is to adopt automated, efficient tech (eg. IAST) by providing guidelines and best practices. |

| OWASP S-SDLC Security Test | Security testing is a process intended to reveal flaws in the security mechanisms of an information system that protect data and maintain functionality as intended
Typical security requirements may include specific elements of confidentiality, integrity, authentication, availability, authorization and non-repudiation. Actual security requirements tested depend on the security requirements implemented by the system. Due to the logical limitations of security testing, passing security testing is not an indication that no flaws exist or that the system adequately satisfies the security requirements. This part of the OWASP S-SDLC project will provide some best practice and useful tips of security testing to help a.) Beginners can start security test easily; b.) Professionals can use for reference. |

Tools
- OpenRASP
OpenRASP is an open-source, free and self-adapting security tool made for OWASP S-SDLC Security Deployment & SecDevOps phase.
It can provide functions like threat detection, data stream monitor, quick-response to production by the deep integration of its protection engine.
Unlike other perimeter control solutions like WAF, OpenRASP directly integrates its protection engine into the application server by instrumentation. It can monitor various events including database queries, file operations and network requests etc.
When an attack happens, WAF matches the malicious request with its signatures and blocks it. OpenRASP takes a different approach by hooking sensitive functions and examines/blocks the inputs fed into them. As a result, this examination is context-aware and in-place. It brings in the following benefits:
1. Only successful attacks can trigger alarms, resulting in lower false positive and higher detection rate;
2. Detailed stack trace is logged, which makes the forensic analysis easier;
3. Insusceptible to malformed protocol.
OpenRASP FAQ
1. List of supported web applicationBelow table shows the recent updates of the project.Below tables shows recent updateBelow table shows recent updates.s. servers
Only Java based web application servers are supported for now. The support of other web application servers will also be soon included in the coming releases.
OpenRASP on the following application servers for both Linux and Windows platforms has been tested.
- Tomcat 6-8
- JBoss 4.X
- WebLogic 11/12
2. Performance impact on application servers
Multiple intense and long-lasting stress tests has been taken. Even in the worst-case scenario (where the hook point got continuously triggered) the server’s performance was only reduced by 10%
3. Integration with existing SIEM or SOC
OpenRASP logs alarms in JSON format, which can be easily picked up by LogStash, rsyslog or Flume.
4. How to develop a new plugin?
A plugin receives a callback when an event occurs. It then determines if the current behavior is malicious or not and blocks the associated request if necessary.
