Towards a Security Cockpit
Nguyen Pham, Löic Baud, Patrick Bellot, Michel Riguidel · 2008
Building systems that are guaranteed to be secure or to remain secure over time is still an unachievable goal. The need for a security cockpit that helps to determine security assurance level of a system in a near real time manner is therefore vital in order to maintain and improve overall security. This paper discusses different steps in the whole security assurance assessment process in order to build such cockpit. To test and evaluate the applicability of our approach, we introduce then a system capable of assessing the security assurance level of a network system. Currently, this assessment system focuses on the availability aspect of the security.
