ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question
Your organization wants to evaluate its current software security initiative by comparing its practices with those empirically observed at dozens of peer companies. It is less interested in following a step-by-step prescriptive roadmap than in learning how its existing activities stack up against industry norms. Which of the following frameworks best fulfills this need?
The Building Security In Maturity Model (BSIMM) is a descriptive study of real-world software security activities across many organizations. It is intended as a measurement and benchmarking tool: teams map what they already do against practices documented in BSIMM to see how they compare with industry peers. In contrast, OWASP SAMM and the NIST Secure Software Development Framework provide prescriptive guidance on how to build or improve a software security program, and ISO/IEC 27034 is a formal international standard offering structured guidance for application security. Therefore, BSIMM is the most appropriate choice when the goal is benchmarking against observed industry practices rather than following a prescribed roadmap for improvement.
