OWASP ASVS

OWASP Application Security Verification Standard

The OWASP Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS) is an open standard for testing and verifying the security of web applications. It provides developers with a comprehensive list of requirements for secure development and helps establish confidence in application security.

Overview

The OWASP ASVS aims to normalize the rigor and coverage of web application security verification through a commercially workable open standard. It specifies technical security controls to protect applications and their environments from vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and SQL injection. ASVS requirements, categorized into chapters and sections, serve as a metric for assessing web application security, a guide for security control development, and a framework for specifying security requirements in procurement contracts. Version 5.0.0 includes updates to structure, requirements, and use cases, available in various formats such as CSV and JSON for easy reference.
