SQUARE (Security Quality Requirements Engineering) is a method for eliciting and prioritizing security requirements in software development projects. This report describes how SQUARE can be incorporated in standard life-cycle models for security-critical projects. Life-cycle models and process methods considered for the report are the waterfall model, Rational Unified Process, the spiral model, and Dynamic Systems Development Method (an agile method).
This report is for information technology managers and security professionals, management personnel with technical and information security knowledge, and any personnel who manage security-critical projects that follow standard life-cycle models.
This report is related to the following area(s) of work:
