Abstract

The development of a security system is generally performed through a multiphase methodology, starting from the initial preliminary analisys of the application environment, up to the physical implementation of the security mechanisms. In this framework, we propose a new approach for the development of security systems based on the reuse of existing security specifications. In the paper we illustrate how reusable specifications can be built by analyzing existing security systems, and how they can be used to develop new security systems not from scratch.
