The scope for applying these standards can be an organisation as a whole, single business processes or even an IT application or IT infrastructure. The context establishment and the asset identification are among the first steps to be performed. The quality of the results produced when performing these steps has a crucial influence on the subsequent steps such as identifying loss, vulnerabilities, possible attacks and defining countermeasures. Thus, a context analysis to gather all necessary information in the initial steps is important, but is not offered in the standard. In this paper, we focus on the scope of cloud computing systems and present a way to support the context establishment and the asset identification described in ISO 27005. A cloud system analysis pattern and different kinds of stakeholder templates serve to understand and describe a given cloud development problem, i.e. the envisaged IT systems and the relevant parts of the operational environment. We illustrate our support using an online banking cloud scenario.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BeckersFassbenderSchmidt2012, author = {Beckers, Kristian and Faßbender, Stephan and Schmidt, Holger}, title = {An Integrated Method for Pattern-Based Elicitation of Legal Requirements Applied to a Cloud Computing Example}, series = {2012 Seventh International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security}, booktitle = {2012 Seventh International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Prague}, isbn = {978-0-7695-4775-6}, doi = {10.1109/ARES.2012.25}, pages = {463 -- 472}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Considering legal aspects during software development is a challenging problem, due to the cross-disciplinary expertise required. The problem is even more complex for cloud computing systems, because of the international distribution, huge amounts of processed data, and a large number of stakeholders that own or process the data. Approaches exist to deal with parts of the problem, but they are isolated from each other. We present an integrated method for elicitation of legal requirements. A cloud computing online banking scenario illustrates the application of our methods. The running example deals with the problem of storing personal information in the cloud and based upon the BDSG (German Federal Data Protection Act). We describe the structure of the online banking cloud system using an existing pattern-based approach. The elicited information is further refined and processed into functional requirements for software development. Moreover, our method covers the analysis of security-relevant concepts such as assets and attackers particularly with regard to laws. The requirements artifacts then serve as inputs for existing patterns for the identification of laws relevant for the online banking cloud system. Finally, our method helps to systematically derive functional as well as security requirements that realize the previously identified laws.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchwittekSchmidtBeckersetal.2012, author = {Schwittek, Widura and Schmidt, Holger and Beckers, Kristian and Eicker, Stefan and Faßbender, Stephan and Heisel, Maritta}, title = {A Common Body of Knowledge for Engineering Secure Software and Services}, series = {2012 Seventh International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security}, volume = {NESSoS, ICT-2009.1.4 Trustworthy ICT, Grant No. 25698}, booktitle = {2012 Seventh International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Prague}, isbn = {978-1-4673-2244-7}, doi = {10.1109/ARES.2012.31}, pages = {499 -- 506}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The discipline of engineering secure software and services brings together researchers and practitioners from software, services, and security engineering. This interdisciplinary community is fairly new, it is still not well integrated and is therefore confronted with differing perspectives, processes, methods, tools, vocabularies, and standards. We present a Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) to overcome the aforementioned problems. We capture use cases from research and practice to derive requirements for the CBK. Our CBK collects, integrates, and structures knowledge from the different disciplines based on an ontology that allows one to semantically enrich content to be able to query the CBK. The CBK heavily relies on user participation, making use of the Semantic MediaWiki as a platform to support collaborative writing. The ontology is complemented by a conceptual framework, consisting of concepts to structure the knowledge and to provide access to it, and a means to build a common terminology. We also present organizational factors covering dissemination and quality assurance.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BeckersFassbenderKuesteretal.2012, author = {Beckers, Kristian and Faßbender, Stephan and K{\"u}ster, Jan-Christoph and Schmidt, Holger}, title = {A Pattern-Based Method for Identifying and Analyzing Laws}, series = {Requirements Engineering: Foundation for Software Quality: 18th International Working Conference, REFSQ 2012, Essen, Germany, March 19-22, 2012.
