A Practical Model For Rating Software Security

  • 1. Software Improvement Group

Description

Published in "Proceedings of the 2013 IEEE Seventh International Conference on Software Security and Reliability Companion"

We propose a new security product quality model that makes ISO 25010 operational. We specify four requirements for the model: (1) the model shall be applicable for all types of software products; (2) the model shall be applicable from the early development phase; (3) the model shall be lightweight, concrete and repeatable; (4) the model shall lead to ratings that allow for comparison between software products.

Notes

Since its creation in 2013, the proposed security model has been applied at hundreds of different organisations all around the world. During the years it has had some small changes.
