7 Software Security NOT security software! Engineering software so that it continues to function correctly under malicious attack – Functional requirements – Non-functional requirements (e.g., security)
8
CSCE 548 - Farkas8 Why Software? Increased complexity of software product Increased connectivity Increased extensibility Increased risk of security violations!
9
CSCE 548 - Farkas9 Security Problems Defects: implementation and design vulnerabilities Bug: implementation-level vulnerabilities (Low- level or mid-level) – Static analysis tool Flaw: subtle, not so easy to detect problems – Manual analysis – Automated tools (for some but not design level) Risk: probability x impact
10
CSCE 548 - Farkas10 Application vs. Software Security Usually refers to security after the software is built – Adding more code does not make a faulty software correct – Sandboxing – Network-centric approach Application security testing: badness-ometer Deep Trouble Who Knows
11
CSCE 548 - Farkas11 Three Pillars of Software Security Risk Management Software Security Touchpoints Knowledge
12
CSCE 548 - Farkas12 Risk Management
13
CSCE 548 - Farkas13 Risk Assessment RISK Threats VulnerabilitiesConsequences
14
CSCE 548 - Farkas14 Risk Management Framework (Business Context) Understand Business Context Identify Business and Technical Risks Synthesize and Rank Risks Define Risk Mitigation Strategy Carry Out Fixes and Validate Measurement and Reporting
15
CSCE 548 - Farkas15 Risk Acceptance Certification How well the system meet the security requirements (technical) Accreditation Management’s approval of automated system (administrative)
16
CSCE 548 - Farkas16 Software Security Touchpoints
17
CSCE 548 - Farkas17 Application of Touchpoints Requirement and Use cases Architecture and Design Test Plans Code Tests and Test Results Feedback from the Field 5. Abuse cases 6. Security Requirements 2. Risk Analysis External Review 4. Risk-Based Security Tests 1. Code Review (Tools) 2. Risk Analysis 3. Penetration Testing 7. Security Operations
18
CSCE 548 - Farkas18 When to Apply Security? Economical consideration: early is better Effectiveness of touchpoints: – Economics – Which software artifacts are available – Which tools are available – Cultural changes Bad: reactive strategy need: secure development
19
Additional Materials Security requirement analysis SecureUML by Lodderstedt et. Al Abuse cases Misuse Cases: Use Cases with Hostile Intent by Alexander Software Reliability Modeling software design diversity by Littlewood et. al CSCE 548 - Farkas19
20
CSCE 548 - Farkas20 Best Practices Earlier the better Change “operational” view to secure software Best practices: expounded by experts and adopted by practitioners
21
CSCE 548 - Farkas21 Who Should Care? Developers Architects Other builders Operations people Do not start with security people. Start with software people.
22
CSCE 548 - Farkas22 SANS: Secure Programming Skills Assessment Aims to improve secure programming skills and knowledge Allow employers to rate their programmers Allow buyers of software and systems vendors to measure skills of developers Allow programmers to identify their gaps in secure programming knowledge Allow employers to evaluate job candidates and potential consultants Provide incentive for universities to include secure coding in their curricula
23
CSCE 548 - Farkas23 Goal of Taxonomy List of common coding mistakes Support for software developers to avoid making mistakes Useful in automated tools – Real time – Compile time Teaching aid NOT an attack taxonomy
24
CSCE 548 - Farkas24 7 Plus 1 Kingdoms 1. Input validation and representation 2. API abuse 3. Security features 4. Time and state 5. Error handling 6. Code quality 7. Encapsulation 8. Environment
