Deals with integrating of security specifications during software design phase using MDA approach
Abdellatif Lasbahani, Mostafa Chhiba, Oussama Mjihil · 2017
There are many recent propositions treating Model Driven Architecture (MDA) approaches to perform and automate code generation from design models. To the best of our knowledge and research, most of these propositions have been only focused on functional aspect by allowing code generation without considering this the non-functional aspect at the same time so that to generate secure object-oriented software basing on MDA approach. In this context, we are adding further details to integrate the security policies required in the form of secure models. The systems specification models will be enhanced with security requirements at different abstraction levels through a set of transformation models. Improving functional models with security constraints allow us to incorporate the security needs and automating generating secure applications with their security infrastructure using MDA approach. After carrying out a modification on MDA processes and UML meta-model to cover a better representation of security policies of an organization by updating different existing software engineering process to take into account nonfunctional aspect along with their functional aspect.
