Systems Engineering, 2012
Abstract Security metrics have evolved side by side with the advent of security tools and techniques. They have been derived from the techniques rather than specified as system requirements. This paper surveys the evolution and state of the practice of security metrics from both a technical and historical perspective. It describes the

Security Analytics and Measurements
IEEE Security & Privacy Magazine, 2012The magazine's founding editor in chief, George Cybenko, and his first successor, Carl E. Landwehr, provide perspectives on the need for measuring security and the meaning of those measurements in the context of adversarial dynamics.

2011 4th Symposium on Configuration Analytics and Automation (SAFECONFIG), 2011
In the recent years, more attention is given to firewalls as they are considered the corner stone in Cyber defense perimeters. The ability to measure the quality of protection of a firewall policy is a key step to assess the defense level for any network.

International Journal of Information Systems in the Service Sector, 2018
The researchers have been focusing on embedding security from the early phases of software development lifecycle. They have researched and innovated a field of Security Engineering where security concerns are embedded during requirement, design, and testing phases of software development.

Measuring the Level of Security Introduced by Security Patterns
2010 International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security, 2010It is possible to reasonably measure the security quality of individual security patterns. However, more interesting is to ask: Can we show that a system built using security patterns is secure in some sense? We discuss here some issues about evaluating the security of a system built using security patterns.

Why Measuring Security Is Hard
IEEE Security & Privacy Magazine, 2010For many years, we've been trying to measure "security" so that we can increase accountability, demonstrate compliance, and determine whether and by how much our investments in products and processes are making our systems more secure. This article investigates why security measurement is difficult and what strategies might help address our needs.

Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study is to define the interactions that determine how secure a society is from terrorism and to propose a method for measuring the threat of terrorism in an objective and spatio-temporally comparable manner.

Measuring login webpage security
Proceedings of the Symposium on Applied Computing, 2017Login webpages are the entry points into sensitive parts of web applications, dividing between public access to a website and private, user-specific, access to the website resources. As such, these entry points must be guarded with great care. A vast majority of today's websites relies on text-based user-name/password pairs for user authentication ...

Validation of IT-security measurement tools
First International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES'06), 2006Different norms demand the measurment of IT-security. But how the measurement should be carried out, is not part of the norms. To compare the results of the different methods and tools with each other, it is necessary to validate the measuring tools. The scientific validation of measuring tools in the area of IT-security raises many questions that have

Measuring Securities Litigation Risk
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2011Abstract Extant research commonly uses indicator variables for industry membership to proxy for securities litigation risk. We provide evidence on the construct validity of this measure by reporting on the predictive ability of alternative models of litigation risk. While the industry measure alone does a relatively poor job of predicting litigation,
