[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Security metrics have been proposed to assess the security of software applications based on the principles of "reduce attack surface" and "grant least privilege." While these metrics can help inform the developer in choosing designs that provide better security, they cannot on their own show exactly how to make an application more secure. Even if they could, the onerous task of updating the software to improve its security is left to the developer. In this paper we present an approach to
