Title
A DSL for specifying autonomic security management strategies
Abstract
Existing self-protection frameworks so far hardly addressed the specification of autonomic security adaptation strategies which guide risk-aware selection or reconfiguration of security mechanisms. Domain-Specific Languages (DSL) present many benefits to achieve this goal in terms of simplicity, automated strategy verification, and run-time integration. This paper presents a DSL to describe security adaptation policies. The DSL is based on the condition-action approach and on a taxonomy of threats and applicable reactions. The DSL also allows to capture trade-offs between security and other concerns such as energy efficiency during the decision making phase. A translation mechanism to refine the DSL into a run-time representation, and integrate adaptation policies within legacy self-protection frameworks is also presented.
