OWASP is organized as an online community that produces freely-available articles, methodologies, documentation, tools, and technologies in the field of web application security. Many standards, books, tools, and organizations reference the Top OWASP 10 project, including MITRE, PCI DSS, the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA-STIG), the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and many more. The OWASP Testing Guide includes a "best practice" penetration testing framework that users can implement in their own organizations and a "low level" penetration testing guide that describes techniques for testing most common web application and web service security issues.
