OSSTMM -
Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual
The
Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM) is a
peer-reviewed methodology for performing security tests and metrics.
The OSSTMM test cases are divided into five channels (sections) which
collectively test: information and data controls, personnel security
awareness levels, fraud and social engineering control levels,
computer and telecommunications networks, wireless devices, mobile
devices, physical security access controls, security processes, and
physical locations such as buildings, perimeters, and military bases.
The OSSTMM focuses on the technical details of exactly which items
need to be tested, what to do before, during, and after a security
test, and how to measure the results. New tests for international best
practices, laws, regulations, and ethical concerns are regularly added
and updated.
Provided here is the latest public release. To receive OSSTMM
development status, notes, and betas, become part of the team.
