Reusing security requirements using an extended quality model
Markus Luckey, Andrea O. Baumann, Daniel Méndez, Stefan Wagner · 2010
A reoccurring problem in software engineering constitutes ensuring sufficient completeness of requirements specifications with economically justifiable efforts. Formulating precise quality requirements and especially security requirements is elaborate as they depend on many stakeholders and technological aspects that are often unclear in early project phases. Threats that may have a severe impact on the software product are sometimes not even known. One approach to tackle this situation is reusing quality requirements, because they are to a high degree similar in different software products. The effect can be higher quality while at the same time saving time and budget.
