As a result of a rigorous work including domain analysis for Java language and development frameworks and the examination of a large set of technical documents, 230 security qualitative metrics are discovered, under six categories. These security qualitative metrics are beneficial for security analysts as well as other parties such as designers, developers, and testers. The findings provide a developer/designer point of view and would help to make better decisions related to the environment set up, technology selection, architecture, design, and implementation details. As a result of using the Security Qualitative Metrics, the overall vulnerability level of the web applications would diminish significantly and user will know their level of meeting OWASP Application Security Verification Standard (OWASP ASVS). + +## How to Use OWASP Security Qualitative Metrics + +These classified findings would be beneficial from the initial phases of application development including analysis, design, implementation, and test. Having this categorized security qualitative metrics would allow knowing the security status and OWASP compliance results for the project, and would help to make better technology, environment, design, and implementation related decisions by various project stakeholders. Start using the metrics [SECURITY QUALITATIVE METRICS.md](./SECURITY-QUALITATIVE-METRICS.md) + +## Learn More Background and Methodology +During the creation of metric list a lage list of technical documents along with OWASP documents are examined. In parallel to these efforts, data from a large scale enterprise software development project is used to provide domain information.
