OWASP Compliance

What Is OWASP Top 10?

The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is an open-source community of security experts from around the world, who have shared their expertise of vulnerabilities, threats, attacks, and countermeasures by developing the OWASP Top 10 – a list of the 10 most dangerous current web application security flaws, and effective methods of dealing with those flaws. Achieving OWASP compliance is an effective first step to change the software development culture within your organization into one that produces secure code. Developing solid, secure products is the best way to secure a position in today’s oversaturated market.

Enforcing OWASP Compliance With Static Analysis

Parasoft’s static analysis solutions provide more support for Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) than any other data source code analysis tool, helping software teams achieve DevSecOps by enforcing security from the very start of development.

As shown to the right, Parasoft’s application for security provides unique real-time feedback that gives users a continuous view of compliance with OWASP, by providing interactive compliance source that includes dashboards, widgets, and reports that have the OWASP risk assessment framework implemented right within the dashboard itself, which takes exploitability, prevalence in the field, likelihood that someone finds it (detectability), and what happens when it fails (impact), organized into a matrix to help users prioritize without having to manually triage.

Parasoft’s comprehensive support for the OWASP security helps users achieve DevSecOps by enforcing open security from the start of project development. With the Parasoft application, you get:

• Out-of-the-box policy / test configurations that are fully configurable.
• Execution from within the IDE and via the CI/CD process to help quickly locate the vulnerability earlier in the SDLC.
• Guidance on how to fix the vulnerabilities with supported documentation and training content.
• Compliance dashboards, widgets, and reports that implement the OWASP risk assessment framework.
