Revisiting Software Security Risks

Robustness of secure software is directly associated with better market and refining relations between customers and software vendors. Nowadays robustness of secure software is an assessment tool to find healthier market room by way of developing highly integrated quotient between customers and vendors. Software security risk management is a very highly appealing phenomenon to control security through establishing expensive countermeasures of security hazards and by controlling them. Existing approaches for security risk management are merely available which are having direct or indirect impact with the simple implementations through planning, development of established security requirements for modifications and execution of security design policies. This paper examines the associated security risks of software through different inputs of security risk management procedure. This review may be helpful to discover the new pitches of risk management techniques of software security controls at design level for high quality secure product. A contribution is made after reviewing views of authors in this paper in the form of a checklist for security risk evaluation and management at software design phase.
