Summary:

Building application security (AppSec) into your organisation’s software development and management practices can be a daunting task. There are myriad elements to consider: organisation structure, business domain, compliance requirements, stakeholder priorities, technology stacks, tools and processes, and more.

Implementing a comprehensive software assurance programme offers significant benefits for the organisation, but doing so without a good framework can yield only marginal and unsustainable improvements. The OWASP Software Assurance Maturity Model (SAMM) provides a structured, measurable framework for assessing the current maturity of your AppSec programme and formulate the roadmap for improvement, tailored to your organisation’s risk profile and priorities.

During the session, we’ll cover: overview of the model, its background and motivations; review of the model’s structure, including the Activities comprising each of its five Business Functions; how to structure, scope, and perform your baseline assessment; and how to develop your improvement roadmap and track progress.
