Abstract

There is a growing recognition of the need for secure software engineering approaches addressing both technical and human factors. Existing approaches to secure software engineering focus on the need for technical security to the detriment of usability. This paper presents the IRIS (Integrating Requirements and Information Security) meta-model, a conceptual model for usable secure requirements engineering. We describe a practical application of the meta-model through a case study in the Critical Infrastructure domain.
