Security-Measurability-Enhancing Mechanisms for a Distributed Adaptive Security Monitoring System
Reijo M. Savola, Petri Heinonen · 2010
Adaptive security management enables resilience, self-protection and self-healing functionality in business-critical applications, their platforms and networks. Sufficient and credible security evidence gathered from the system and its use forms the basis for adaptive security decision-making. This study proposes practical and systematic security-measurability-enhancing mechanisms that support adaptive and distributed security monitoring of telecommunications and software-intensive systems. The study also analyzes the feasibility of the proposed mechanisms.
