Abstract

Security may be quantified to measure the level of software security implementation. These quantified measures are called security metrics. These metrics need to be stored in some central or local repository for further analysis and refinement of security of software proposed to be developed or modified. Through the research work carried out by the researchers, it is proposed to have a data structure for storage of metrics values which are identified and collected using the Misuse Case Oriented Quality Requirements (MCOQR) framework. The research work highlights and discusses the internal arrangement of various data sets in the data structure and their relationship with each other. The data sets thus proposed are properly synchronized with the industry accepted standards like Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS), Common Vulnerability Enumeration (CVE), and Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE). The work proposed is an extension of Misuse Case Oriented Quality Requirements (MCOQR) framework and metrics and includes software application-specific database. The research work also highlights the areas where further research work can be carried out to further strengthen the entire system.
