Analysis reveals a new information system evaluates web application security using OWASP ASVS standards, indicating improved accuracy with expert judgments.
The design of an information system for assessing the security of web applications based on an original methodology developed by the authors is presented in this paper. The proposed security assessment methodology is based on the requirements of the OWASP Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS) and adapted to various application architectures and functionalities by selecting a set of relevant requirements and determining their impact on the overall evaluation. The quantitative assessment of requirements is calculated using a system of developed criteria and an evaluation algorithm that incorporates weight coefficients of importance assigned by experts. The assessment is carried out by multiple experts to minimize subjectivity in judgments. The aggregation of expert judgments is performed within a fuzzy logic subsystem. The article describes all stages of the assessment process automation – from collecting input data to calculating the integrated security score, taking into account the weight coefficients. The information system supports a modular architecture, personalized project workflows, and result visualization, enabling its application in information security audits.
