Security Engineering Project

Abstract

The Security Engineering project has focused on the development of what is referred to as System Aware Cyber Security, a novel approach for adding cyber attack defense in depth through embedding cyber security solutions to protect specified critical functions of a system within the perimeter of the system. The research efforts have focused on: 1. Concept definition for System Aware Security 2. Design and analysis of reusable system aware security designs that can serve as patterns for solutions that are repetitive at the design concept level from system to system. This includes adopting and utilizing a specification format for security design patterns. 3. Development and initial trial of a first methodology to support system engineers in the selection of groups of available design patterns for a specific system implementation.
