OWASP Developer Guide
Metrics
10. Metrics
Metrics are important in an organization for various reasons, and in software security they can be used to:
- measure the effectiveness of security controls
- determine security posture
- provide justification for security programs
- and others
At present the OWASP Integration Standards project Application Wayfinder project does not identify any OWASP projects that gather or process metrics, but this may change in the future.
The OWASP Developer Guide is a community effort; if there is something that needs changing then submit an issue or edit on GitHub.
