Application Security Compliance & OWASP
Mapping

Automate application security compliance with DerScanner. Map vulnerabilities to OWASP, CWE, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and other standards and generate audit-ready reports and SBOMs. Works across SAST, DAST, SCA, and MAST findings.

What Is Application Security Compliance?

Application security compliance is the practice of aligning software security testing with the frameworks and regulations that apply to an organization.

Standards like OWASP Top 10, CWE/SANS Top 25, and OWASP ASVS define which vulnerability categories an application must be tested for. Regulations like PCI DSS 4.0.1, HIPAA, and ISO 27001 define what evidence auditors expect. Application compliance work usually involves three steps: scanning applications, mapping each finding to the relevant framework and providing evidence for regulatory standards, and after that — producing reports.

Why Compliance Isn't Easy

Evolving Standards

OWASP, CWE, and PCI DSS update their requirements regularly. Keeping mappings up to date is a manual burden most teams cannot afford.

Manual Mapping Complexity

Mapping each finding to the right OWASP category, CWE identifier, and regulatory requirement takes hours per scan — and mistakes lead to audit failures.

Deadlines

EU CRA requires full compliance by December 2027 — and vulnerability reporting from September 2026. PCI DSS 4.0.1 is already mandatory. Most teams have months left.

WHY DERSCANNER

How DerScanner Fixes It

Vulnerability Compliance Mapping
DerScanner maps every finding independently to multiple frameworks: vulnerability classification standards (OWASP Top 10, CWE/SANS Top 25, OWASP ASVS, OWASP MASVS) and helps to provide evidence for regulatory standards (PCI DSS 4.0.1, HIPAA, etc).
Framework-Based Filtering
Filter scan results by compliance framework. See only the findings that affect PCI DSS 4.0.1 audit, OWASP assessment, or HIPAA review — without scrolling through unrelated detections.
Audit-Ready Reporting
Pre-formatted PDFs, HTML, CSV, etc — by standard, by application, by severity. When the standard updates, the report template updates with it. You always get the latest version.
Trusted by industry leaders
DerScanner is deployed by enterprise customers, certified by MITRE as CWE-compatible. Compliance against the regulations hitting in 2026–2027 should be started now.

Supported Compliance Standards

DerScanner tags every finding against two distinct categories of standards: vulnerability classification frameworks (which describe what a flaw is) and regulatory standards (which describe what evidence the organization owes). Each finding receives tags from both — one scan supports multiple audit requirements simultaneously. DerScanner is also a MITRE certified solution and helps meeting compliance with industry standards.

Vulnerability Classification Frameworks

OWASP Top 10 (2025)

Web application risks. DerScanner SAST (2025) and DAST (2021) findings map to all ten categories. Reports show coverage per category — the format used in most application security reviews.

OWASP Mobile Top 10 (2024)

Mobile-specific risks to include supply chain and cryptography categories. Findings are mapped automatically.

OWASP ASVS

Application Security Verification Standard — three assurance levels (L1, L2, L3) for web applications. DerScanner supports ASVS-based reporting for structured security verification.

OWASP MASVS

Mobile equivalent of ASVS, with L1 and L2 verification levels. DerScanner tags findings against MASVS requirements automatically.

PCI DSS 4.0.1

Payment card industry requirement. PCI DSS 4.0.1 became fully mandatory in March 2025 and requires evidence of application security testing. DerScanner produces the report formats QSAs expect.

HIPAA

US healthcare regulation. DerScanner documents which applications were tested and which flaws were found — the evidence HIPAA risk assessments demand.

CWE & CWE/SANS Top 25

DerScanner is officially CWE-compatible (certified by MITRE).
Reports filter to CWE/SANS Top 25 to highlight the most commonly exploited weaknesses.

Regulatory Standards

ISO 27001

Information security management standard. DerScanner provides audit trails covering secure development practices, vulnerability findings, and remediation status.

EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)

EU regulation for products with digital elements. DerScanner SCA generates SBOMs; SAST and DAST provide the testing evidence the CRA requires by December 2027.

NIS2 & DORA

European critical infrastructure and financial regulations. They require continuous security testing and incident documentation. DerScanner produces both.

How it works?

How DerScanner Enables Compliance

Compliance work happens automatically as part of every scan, no worries.

Scan

SAST, DAST, SCA, or MAST scan runs in your CI/CD pipeline or on demand.

Map

Each finding is automatically tagged with the applicable frameworks and regulatory standards.

Prioritize

DerTriage filters findings by exploitability automatically, doesn't require manual control.

Report

DerScanner generates audit-ready reports filtered by framework, application, or severity.

Monitor

DerScanner tracks compliance posture over time and compares each scan against the last.

Compliance-ready Application Security Testing

DerScanner meets the standards of Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) and supports Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA) and Supply Chain Security (SCS).

DerScanner is officially recognized by MITRE as CWE-compatible. It delivers Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST), Mobile Application Security Testing (MAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), and Supply Chain Security (SCS), to ensure that vulnerabilities in proprietary code, open-source libraries, and dependencies are detected and fixed.

Findings are mapped to CWE/SANS Top 25, OWASP Top 10, and OWASP MASVS, enabling teams to generate auditor-ready compliance reports for standards such as PCI DSS and HIPAA. This helps organizations demonstrate adherence to security requirements, simplify audit preparation, and maintain trust with customers and regulators.
