Abstract. In current practices security concerns are typically addressed at the design or implementation stages, leaving aside the rationale for security analysis. The reason is that a systematic approach to address security from late development stages to early analysis stages does not exist. This paper presents transformation rules to perform model translation from misuse case diagram to Secure Tropos model. The translation justifies the system security concerns, and keep the traceability of the security decisions. Our proposal is based on the systematic domain model for information systems security risk management (ISSRM); thus, it preserves the semantics of both security languages ’ constructs and synchronise the mechanisms across language boundaries to elicit, correct and complete security requirements. An example from banking sector demonstrates the applicability of our proposal.
