The design and development process for internet of things (IoT) applications is more
complicated than that for desktop, mobile, or web applications. First, IoT applications require …

The security of software-intensive systems is frequently attacked. High fines or loss in
reputation are potential consequences of not maintaining confidentiality, which is an …

This paper presents a practical and formal approach to analyze security-centric information
flow policies at the level of the design model. Specifically, we focus on data confidentiality …

Software architectures allow identifying confidentiality issues early and in a cost-efficient
way. Information Flow (IF) and Access Control (AC) are established confidentiality …

In this paper, we explore the possibility of hardware acceleration implementation of sparse
coding algorithm with spintronic devices by a series of design optimizations across the …

Software vendors must consider confidentiality especially while creating software
architectures because decisions made here are hard to change later. Our approach …

Organizations creating software commonly utilize software development lifecycles (SDLCs)
to structure development activities. Secure development lifecycles (SDLs) integrate into …

Security patterns are intended to package reusable security solutions and have received
considerable research attention in the two decades since their introduction. Practitioners …

The principle of security by design is advocated by academia as well as industry.
Unfortunately, its adoption in practice is not yet widespread. We believe a reason for this is …

Context: Security is a growing concern in many organizations. Industries developing
software systems plan for security early-on to minimize expensive code refactorings after …
