Abstract

A trustworthy computer system is a system that in addition to being secure and reliable, it provides privacy-sensitive services with the highest possible business integrity. In this paper, we describe a framework for the proper engineering of trustworthy computer systems. The proposed framework emphasizes the importance of services as the starting point for such engineering activities. Moreover, the framework covers security development and maintenance activities leading to trustworthy systems that provide trustworthy services.
