Patterns of safe collaborationSpiessens, Fred 21 February 2007 (has links)
When practicing secure programming, it is important to understand the restrictive influence programmed entities have on the propagation of authority in a program. To precisely model authority propagation in patterns of interacting entities, we present a new formalism Knowledge Behavior Models (KBM). To describe such patterns, we present a new domain specific declarative language SCOLL (Safe Collaboration Language), which semantics are expressed by means of KBMs. To calculate the solutions for the safety problems expressed in SCOLL, we have built SCOLLAR: a model checker and solver based on constraint logic programming.
SCOLLAR not only indicates whether the safety requirements are guaranteed by the restricted behavior of the relied-upon entities, but also lists the different ways in which their behavior can be restricted to guarantee the safety properties without precluding their required functionality and (re-)usability. How the tool can help programmers to build reliable components that can safely interact with partially or completely untrusted components is shown in elaborate examples.

Integrating secure programming concepts in introductory programming coursesJama, Fartun January 2020 (has links)
The number of vulnerable systems with exploitable security defects has increased. This led to an increase in the demand for secure software systems. Software developers lack security experiences to design and build secure software, some even believe security is not their responsibility. Despite the increased need for teaching security and secure programming, security is not well integrated into the undergraduate computing curriculum and is only offered as part of a program or as an elective course. The aim of this project is to outline the importance of incorporating security and secure programming concepts in programming courses starting from the introductory courses. By evaluating the students' security consideration and knowledge regarding software security. As a result, based on the knowledge students lack regarding software security, security and secure programming concepts are identified which need to be integrated into the programming courses.
