Title
Unifying Structural and Security Modeling and Analyses in the ADAM Object-Oriented Design Environment
Abstract
The work presented herein details our research and prototyping results in unifying structural and security requirements during system design. The feasibility of more precisely and accurately characterizing an application and its data security requirements has been tested and demonstrated in the object-oriented design environment, ADAM, short for Active Design and Analyses Modeling. ADAM is a language-independent environment that automatically generates compilable code in C++, Ontos C++, Ada83, or Ada9X (object-oriented extension to Ada) from designs that have been supplied via graphical, form-based, and textual input.Our unifying approach elevates the concern of data security to a first-class citizen in the design process, rather than as an afterthought, as has typically been the case. Analyses are a critical component of the unification, through which software engineers can evaluate the content and context of their applications, from structural and security perspectives. To more fully support the design process, integrity constraints are also integrated within the unified model. Finally, as means to transition from design to development, issues related to the realization and enforcement of security are considered.
