"This book provides a theoretical and academic description of Cloud security issues, methods, tools and trends for developing secure software for Cloud services and applications"--Provided by publisher.

Based on the paradigm of model-driven security, the authors of this book show how to systematically design and realize security-critical applications for SOAs. In a second step, they apply the principles of model-driven security to SOAs.

For quite some time, in systems and software design, security only came as a second thought or even as a nice-to-have add-on. However, since the breakthrough of the Internet as a virtual backbone for electronic commerce and similar applications, security is now recognized as a fundamental requirement. This book presents a systematic security improvement approach based on the pattern paradigm. The author first clarifies the key concepts of security patterns, defines their semantics and syntax, demonstrates how they can be used, and then compares his model with other security approaches. Based on the author's model and best practice in security patterns, security novices are now in a position to understand how security experts solve problems and can basically act like them by using the patterns available as building blocks for their designs.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Engineering Secure Software and Systems, ESSoS 2011, held in Madrid, Italy, in February 2011. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 3 idea papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 63 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on model-based security, tools and mechanisms, Web security, security requirements engineering, and authorization.

Cybersecurity for medical devices is no longer optional. We must not allow sensationalism or headlines to drive the discussion… Nevertheless, we must proceed with urgency. In the end, this is about preventing patient harm and preserving patient trust. A comprehensive guide to medical device secure lifecycle management, this is a book for engineers, managers, and regulatory specialists. Readers gain insight into the security aspects of every phase of the product lifecycle, including concept, design, implementation, supply chain, manufacturing, postmarket surveillance, maintenance, updates, and end of life. Learn how to mitigate or completely avoid common cybersecurity vulnerabilities introduced during development and production. Grow your awareness of cybersecurity development topics ranging from high-level concepts to practical solutions and tools. Get insight into emerging regulatory and customer expectations. Uncover how to minimize schedule impacts and accelerate time-to-market while still accomplishing the main goal: reducing patient and business exposure to cybersecurity risks. Medical Device Cybersecurity for Engineers and Manufacturers is designed to help all stakeholders lead the charge to a better medical device security posture and improve the resilience of our medical device ecosystem.

Includes articles in topic areas such as autonomic computing, operating system architectures, and open source software technologies and applications.

Security and Dependability for Ambient Intelligence is the primary publication of the SERENITY approach, which provides security and dependability (S&D) solutions for dynamic, highly distributed, heterogeneous systems. The objective of SERENITY is to enhance the security and dependability of ambient intelligence systems by providing a framework supporting the automated integration, configuration, monitoring and adaptation of security and dependability mechanisms. An edited volume contributed by world leaders in the field, this book covers the problems that the highly dynamic and heterogeneous nature of ambient intelligence systems poses to security and dependability and presents solutions to these problems. Security and Dependability for Ambient Intelligence is designed for researchers and practitioners focusing on the dynamic integration, deployment and verification of security and dependability solutions in highly distributed systems incorporating ambient intelligence features. It is also suitable as a reference or secondary text for advanced-level students in computer science and computer or electrical engineering.

This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at the 10th International Conference on Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining, and Granular Computing, RSFDGrC 2005, organized at the University of Regina, August 31st–September 3rd, 2005.

Traditionally, software engineers have defined security as a non-functional requirement. As such, all too often it is only considered as an afterthought, making software applications and services vulnerable to attacks. With the phenomenal growth in cybercrime, it has become imperative that security be an integral part of software engineering so tha
