SAMM 1.0 Released! | OpenSAMM

[ken at krvw.com (Kenneth Van Wyk)]

Good news today from the Software Assurance Maturity Model (SAMM) group.

http://www.opensamm.org/2009/03/samm-10-released/

Their release says:

"The Beta release has been out for quite a while now (since August  
2008) and lots of organizations and individuals have provided  
excellent feedback to help improve the model. I?ve heard lots of  
stories from people using SAMM (some are consulting firms, and some  
are development organizations) and that feedback has been some of the  
most valuable. This release marks the official 1.0 version of SAMM and  
there?s a few new pieces added:

     * Executive summary and introduction to the model
     * Improved details on applying the model to solve problems
     * Assessment worksheets for evaluating existing programs
     * Roadmaps for financial services and government organizations
     * Improvements and refinements to the model (I?ll cover changes  
individually in separate posts)

Many thanks to the individual reviewers and the organizations that  
have volunteered time to help improve SAMM. I look forward to more  
active participants as we push forward with some of the future  
development plans for SAMM."



Cheers,

Ken
