CASA

DEKRA's Cloud Application Security Assessment (CASA) is an industry-recognized security standard developed by the App Defense Alliance, validating secure and reliable integration of cloud and local storage systems.

Covering everything from mobile to serverless applications, our core mission is to help improve the scalability and inclusivity of storage systems while verifying the security of consumer data.

Through comprehensive testing, CASA provides significant benefits to all applications that utilize and store data by identifying vulnerabilities and enhancing consumer trust.

As one of 11 authorized testing laboratories of the App Defense Alliance (ADA) led by Google, DEKRA conducts CASA´s flexible, tiered evaluation process, ensuring that security measures are tailored to the specific risks and needs of your application.

Why you need CASA ?

As applications and systems grow interconnected through cloud integrations, a trusted security standard is essential to protect user data.

Based on OWASP's Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS), our Cloud Application Security Assessment provides an industry-recognized security standard, evaluating cloud and local storage integrations into risk-based tiers, to ensure the highest standard of data security for you and your customer.

Providing clear guidelines and a standardized approach, CASA helps you to improve the security of cloud integrations, while boosting consumer trust through third-party assessments.
