OWASP Top 10:2025
International
v2025
10 domains
10 controls
The OWASP Top 10 is the standard awareness document for web application security. It represents a broad consensus about the most critical security risks to web applications. The 2025 edition includes two new categories: Software Supply Chain Failures (A03) and Mishandling of Exceptional Conditions (A10), with significant reorganization from the 2021 edition.
Verified
OWASP Top 10:2025 is a compliance framework from International with 10 domains and 10 controls that map to 189 other frameworks. The largest domains are Access Control (1 controls), Authentication (1 controls), Component Security (1 controls). Every control below carries what it requires and what an assessor expects to see.
Framework summaries on this platform are AI-assisted interpretations for educational and compliance planning purposes. They do not reproduce or replace the official standards.

What is OWASP Top 10:2025 and who does it apply to?
OWASP Top 10:2025 is a compliance framework from International with 10 domains and 10 controls. The OWASP Top 10 is the standard awareness document for web application security. It represents a broad consensus about the most critical security risks to web applications. The 2025 edition includes two new categories: Software Supply Chain Failures (A03) and Mishandling of Exceptional Conditions (A10), with significant reorganization from the 2021 edition. It is used by organisations to establish and maintain compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
What does OWASP Top 10:2025 actually require?
OWASP Top 10:2025 has 10 controls organised across 10 domains. The largest domains are Access Control (1 controls), Authentication (1 controls), Component Security (1 controls). Each control defines specific requirements that organisations must implement to achieve compliance.
If I already comply with another framework, how much of OWASP Top 10:2025 do I already cover?
OWASP Top 10:2025 maps to 189 other compliance frameworks. The top mapping partners are NIST SP 800-82 Revision 3: Guide to Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Security (80% coverage), ISO/IEC 27400:2022 (70% coverage), FedRAMP Rev 5 (70% coverage). Use our comparison tool to explore control-level mappings between frameworks.
How do I implement OWASP Top 10:2025?
Start your OWASP Top 10:2025 compliance journey by running a self-assessment on our platform to identify your current compliance posture. Our AI advisory can answer specific questions about OWASP Top 10:2025 requirements, and cross-framework mapping helps you leverage existing controls from other frameworks you may already comply with.
