Description

The DASVS project has independently identified the same ASVS gap we did. They also took a practical approach by creating controls that are testable in real world scenarios.

Assuming their license is compatible, I propose we consider incorporating any missing items from their work into our project. We should ensure full attribution to their team and, ideally, collaborate with them by inviting a PR from their side into our repository.

This approach would allow us to integrate their contributions alongside our planned updates. We can then use this as a foundation for a broader overhaul next year to align with ASVS v5: https://github.com/OWASP/www-project-thick-client-application-security-verification-standard/issues/17

Research direction

Review the linked DASVS v1.0.0 PDF and compare it with the current TCASVS content to identify missing, testable controls. Check the licensing and the discussion in issue 17 before proposing collaboration or integration. Done means an agreed, attributed scope for incorporation or a concrete PR from the DASVS team.
