Abstract

In this paper, we present STS-Tool, the modelling and analysis support tool for STS-ml, an actor- and goal-oriented security requirements modelling language for Socio-Technical Systems (STSs). STS-Tool allows designers to model a socio-technical system at a high-level of abstraction, while expressing constraints (security needs) over the interactions between the actors in the STS, and derive security requirements in terms of social commitments (promises with contractual validity) once the modelling is done.
