ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

A development team is selecting a security testing standard to underpin their application assessment process. They choose the Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM) because it will let them quantify test results across different operational areas in a consistent way. According to OSSTMM, which feature specifically enables this quantitative comparison of security posture?

  • A focus on black-box web application assessments to enumerate OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities.

  • Certification as a mandatory, legally binding standard under ISO and PCI DSS regulations.

  • A requirement that all vulnerability severities be expressed with the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS).

  • Its use of Risk Assessment Values (RAV) within the Operational Security Metrics model to assign numerical scores to test findings.
