Abstract.A literature survey on ontologies concerning the Security Assessment domain has been carried out to uncover initiatives that aim at formalizing concepts from the "Security Assessment" field of research. A preliminary analysis and a discussion on the selected works are presented. Our main contribution is an updated literature review, describing key characteristics, results, research issues, and application domains of the papers. We have also detected gaps in the Security Assessment literature that could be the subject of further studies in the field. This work is meant to be useful for security researchers who wish to adopt a formal approach in their methods.

International audienceSecurity is an important issue that needs to be taken into account at all stages of information system development, including early requirements elicitation. Early analysis of security makes it possible to predict threats and their impacts and define adequate security requirements before the system is in place. Security requirements are difficult to elicit, analyze, and manage. The fact that analysts' knowledge about security is often tacit makes the task of security requirements elicitation even harder. Ontologies are known for being a good way to formalize knowledge. Ontologies, in particular, have been proved useful to support reusability. Requirements engineering based on predefined ontologies can make the job of requirement engineering much easier and faster. However, this very much depends on the quality of the ontology that is used. Some security ontologies for security requirements have been proposed in the literature. None of them stands out as complete. This paper presents a core and generic security ontology for security requirements engineering. Its core and generic status is attained thanks to its coverage of wide and high-level security concepts and relationships. We implemented the ontology and developed an interactive environment to facilitate the use of the ontology during the security requirements engineering process. The proposed security ontology was evaluated by checking its validity and completeness compared to other ontologies. Moreover, a controlled experiment with end-users was performed to evaluate its usability

Pattern‐based software process modeling for dependability

Traditional process modeling focuses on modeling activities for functional requirements. For dependability requirements, a knowledge‐based aspect‐oriented software process modeling approach is proposed. First, we extend the pattern and context to the knowledge graph triplet structure to describe dependability‐oriented knowledge patterns. By applying the patterns, dependability requirements can be organized into dependability‐related activities that are integrated into the software process. Then, aspect‐oriented modeling patterns based on Petri nets are introduced to support the integration of these dependability‐related activities and model dependability‐oriented software processes. Finally, the modeling performance and the subjective usability of the patterns are evaluated by 110 students with different degrees. The results indicate that these two indexes are on the positive track. Hence, the patterns may be the backbone of dependability‐oriented software process modeling.
