OWASP SAMM, or the Software Assurance Maturity Model, is an open framework designed to help organizations formulate and implement a software security strategy tailored to their specific risks.
This model allows organizations to evaluate their existing software security practices and integrate a strategy for software security into their existing Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC). The primary purpose of OWASP SAMM is to provide an effective and measurable way for organizations to analyze and improve their software security posture.
