Security Requirements Engineering Process for Web Applications
Paolo Salini, Selvadurai Kanmani · Procedia Engineering · 2012
In the recent years, tasks such as the Security Requirements Elicitation, the Specification of Security Requirements or the Security requirements Validation are essential to assure the Quality of the resulting software. An increasing part of the communication and sharing of information in our society utilizes Web Applications. Last two years have seen a significant surge in the amount of Web Application specific vulnerabilities that are disclosed to the public because of the importance of Security Requirements Engineering for Web based systems and as it is still under estimated. There-fore a thorough Security Requirements analysis is even more relevant. In this paper, we propose a Model oriented Security Requirement Engineering Process for Web Applications and applied our Process for E-Voting system. By applying Modeling technologies to Requirement phases, the Security requirements and domain knowledge can be captured in a well-defined model and it is better than traditional process.
