Measuring the Level of Security Introduced by Security Patterns
Eduardo B. Fernández, Nobukazu Yoshioka, Hironori Washizaki, Michael VanHilst · 2010
It is possible to reasonably measure the security quality of individual security patterns. However, more interesting is to ask: Can we show that a system built using security patterns is secure in some sense? We discuss here some issues about evaluating the security of a system built using security patterns. We consider the use of threats and misuse patterns to perform this evaluation.
