  • A METHOD OF TRUST MANAGEMENT IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

    The research problem considered in this paper is how to protect wireless sensor networks (WSN) against cyber-threats by applying trust management and how to strengthen network resilience to attacks targeting the trust management mechanism itself. A new method, called WSN Cooperative Trust Management Method (WCT2M), of distributed trust management in multi-layer wireless sensor networks is proposed and its performance is evaluated....

  • Introducing agile practices into development processes of safety critical software
    Publication

    In this paper we present AgileSafe - a method which supports introduction of agile practices into safety-critical software development processes. To represent safety assurance constraints resulting from the regulatory context, AgileSafe uses assurance case patterns. The knowledge base of AgileSafe helps the user to select the agile practices relevant for the considered software development project. The corresponding assurance case...

  • Meeting Requirements Imposed by Secure Software Development Standards and Still Remaining Agile
    Publication

    The paper introduces the AgileSafe method of selecting agile practices for software development projects that are constrained by assurance requirements resulting from safety and/or security related standards. Such requirements are represented by argumentation templates which explain how the evidence collected during agile practices implementation will support the conformity with the requirements. Application of the method is demonstrated...

  • Comparative conformance cases for monitoring multiple implementations of critical requirements
    Publication

    The paper presents the concept and the mechanism of comparative conformance cases which support conformance monitoring in situations where a standard or other set of requirements are being implemented at multiple sites. The mechanism is enabled by NOR-STA services which implement the TRUST-IT methodology and are deployed in the cloud in accordance with the SaaS model. In the paper we introduce the concept of comparative conformance...

  • An approach to evaluation of arguments in trust cases
    Publication

    - Year 2008

    Trustworthiness of IT systems can be justified using the concept of a trust case. A trust case is an argument structure which encompasses justification and evidence supporting claimed properties of a system. It represents explicitly an expert's way of assessing that a certain object has certain properties. Trust cases can be developed collaboratively on the basis of evidence and justification of varying quality. They can be complex...

  • Argument strategies and patterns of the Trust-IT framework

    Artykuł dotyczy metodologicznego i narzędziowego środowiska Trust-IT wspierającego budowę dowodów zaufania (ang. trust case), a w szczególności strategii tworzenia dowodu zaufania. Strategia uzależniona jest od właściwości systemu (lub innego rozważanego obiektu), która podlega analizie w ramach dowodu zaufania. W artykule zaprezentowano dwie strategie: oparta na ryzyku i oparta na standardach oraz omówiono kilka często stosowanych...

  • Expert assessment of arguments: a method and its experimental evaluation
    Publication

    - Year 2008

    Argument structures are commonly used to develop and present cases for safety, security and other properties. Such argument structures tend to grow excessively. To deal with this problem, appropriate methods of their assessment are required. Two objectives are of particular interest: (1) systematic and explicit assessment of the compelling power of an argument, and (2) communication of the result of such an assessment to relevant...

  • Extending GQM by Argument Structures
    Publication

    - Year 2008

    Effective methods for metrics definition are of particular importance, as measurement mechanisms are indispensable in virtually any engineering discipline. The paper describes how the well known Goal-Question-Metric (GQM) method of systematic metrics derivation from measurement goals can be extended by applying argument structures. The proposed approach is called Goal-Argument-Metric (GAM). The general ideas of GQM and GAM are...

  • Representing and appraising Toulmin model arguments in trust cases
    Publication

    The paper presents a Toulmin-based argument model used in trust cases, which allows to argue various properties of IT systems. Argument patterns encountered in trust cases are discussed together with some real-life examples. A method of argument appraisal is introduced together with the corresponding aggregation mechanism. Practical applications of trust cases in industrial and research projects are outlined.

  • Standards Conformity Framework in comparison with contemporary methods supporting standards application
    Publication

    - Year 2008

    Achieving and assessing conformity with standards and compliance with various sets of requirements generates significant costs for contemporary economies. Great deal of this is spent on fulfilment of safety and security requirements. However, standards application is not supported sufficiently by the tools available on the market. Therefore, Standards Conformity Framework (SCF) containing methods and tools which provide support...

  • Standard Compliance Framework for effective requirements communication

    Standard Compliance Framework (SCF) is a framework, which supports application of standards at the stages of achieving, assessing and maintaining the compliance. It uses Trust Case language to develop argument structures demonstrating compliance with standards. The paper presents how SCF is applied to increase effectiveness of requirements communication. Relevant mechanisms of the framework are thoroughly described referring to...

  • Supporting compliance with safety standards by trust case templates
    Publication

    - Year 2007

    Standard Compliance (SC) Framework presented in this paper encompasses methods and tools which provide support for application of standards. The framework is based on trust case methodology. A trust case is a data structure which represents a justification that an object (a system, an infrastructure, an organization) exhibits certain properties. It contains an argument and related evidence which support claimed properties. A trust...

  • Supporting Compliance with Security Standards by Trust Case Templates
    Publication

    - Year 2007

    Trust Cases are used to justify that a given object (a system, an infrastructure, an organization) exhibits certain properties. One of possible applications of trust cases is related to the processes of achieving and demonstrating the compliance with standards. A Trust Case Template derived from a given standard constitutes a skeleton of justification (encompassing evidence and argumentation) of the compliance with the standard....

  • Using argument structures to create a measurement plan

    While planning an experiment the same question always arises: What are the goals of the experiment and which measurements are needed to demonstrate that the goals have been achieved? Deciding about the extent of raw data to be collected, the metrics to be constructed on those data and the interpretation of the metrics with respect to the assumed goals is by no means a trivial task. In this paper we show how a well known Gal-Question-Metrics...
