Abstract

In this talk I will discuss our experience with one particular development methodology for security related software. I will describe the general principles it follows, the tools used, and the resources needed. Then I will offer some opinions on why this approach is effective and practical for achieving even moderate levels of security. When the goal is a very high level security, I will explain why I believe that at least the general principles, if not the specific details, are probably essential.
