Can I ask what people think of the OSST and the Methodology laid down in the 
OSSTM Manual?

Another question, especially for those UK residents - how well respected is 
the OSST Methodology?

I am thinking of including this in our standard internal dest practice set.

We aleady use the HMG InfoSec Standards 1 & 3 and CRAMM for Risk Assessment, 
the ITIL Security Model for Security Change & Incident Management but we are 
currently lacking when it comes to a decent Testing Standard.  

Yours,

Rik Kershaw-Moore,  ITPC-HMG..
