Three application security (AppSec) experts Brian Glas, Maxim Maele and Rob van der Veer talk about why they love SAMM, in a discussion hosted by Aram Hovsepyan, another AppSec expert. The Software Assurance Maturity Model (SAMM) is an application security programme developed by the Open Worldwide Application Security project. 

All three experts agree that the main strength of the SAMM model is its prescriptive nature, meaning that it provides a lot of guidance not only to evaluate but also to improve your secure software development. While other models like Microsoft SDL are also prescriptive, no other model has the level of detail in its guidance like OWASP SAMM.
