OWASP. The Open Worldwide Application Security Project [7] (OWASP) is an online community that produces freely available articles, methodologies, documentation, tools, and technologies in the fields of IoT, system software and web application security. [8][9][10] The OWASP provides free and open resources.
Application security. Application security (short AppSec) includes all tasks that introduce a secure software development life cycle to development teams. Its final goal is to improve security practices and, through that, to find, fix and preferably prevent security issues within applications. It encompasses the whole application life cycle ...
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is a free and open industry standard for assessing the severity of computer system security vulnerabilities. CVSS attempts to assign severity scores to vulnerabilities, allowing responders to prioritize responses and resources according to threat. Scores are calculated based on a formula that ...
The third category includes work products that describe system design guidelines and requirements for the secure integration of control systems. Core in this is the zone and conduit, design model. The fourth category includes work products that describe the specific product development and technical requirements of control system products.
Cross-site scripting. Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a type of security vulnerability that can be found in some web applications. XSS attacks enable attackers to inject client-side scripts into web pages viewed by other users. A cross-site scripting vulnerability may be used by attackers to bypass access controls such as the same-origin policy.
Static application security testing (SAST) is used to secure software by reviewing the source code of the software to identify sources of vulnerabilities. Although the process of statically analyzing the source code has existed as long as computers have existed [clarification needed], the technique spread to security in the late 90s and the ...
The design principles. Economy of mechanism: Keep the design as simple and small as possible. Fail-safe defaults: Base access decisions on permission rather than exclusion. Complete mediation: Every access to every object must be checked for authority. Open design: The design should not be secret. Separation of privilege: Where feasible, a ...
OWASP pytm is a Pythonic framework for threat modeling and the first Threat-Model-as-Code tool: The system is first defined in Python using the elements and properties described in the pytm framework. Based on this definition, pytm can generate a Data Flow Diagram (DFD), a Sequence Diagram and most important of all, threats to the system.
