Although Security is a non-functional requirement, it is a very essential requirement for software systems, to achieve secure software specification development for enterprises we need to find and fix vulnerabilities in the early phase of SDLC. For the successful achievement of secure software specification development in the software enterprise, the security of software application plays a very vital role. During the software development lifecycle, improper security can lead to thoughtful and serious consequences in any enterprise. In this paper, the case study approach is followed regarding the achievement of a secure web application, finding and fixing vulnerabilities in the early software development lifecycle, and applying the re-engineering process on a developed web application using the best security assessment model considering the literature review. Also, validation of the developed application is done with the help of Penetration testing.
