Abstract

From the Publisher:Companies that consistently produce high-quality software on schedule and within budget have an enormous advantage over their competitors. To achieve and maintain a high level of productivity, you need to know how to eliminate the factors that impede successful development — a challenge this new reference addresses in depth. The book shows how applying risk management to each stage of the software engineering model can help the entire development process run according to plan. Starting with a concise overview of quality software, it identifies the potential threats associated with software development, explains how to establish an effective risk management program, and details the six critical steps involved in applying the process: 聲 Asset valuation 聲 Security threat identification 聲 Security control testing 聲 Safeguard assessment 聲 Economic value analyses 聲 Reiterative procedures The book also explores the pros and cons of software and organizational maturity, discusses various software metrics approaches you can use to measure software quality, and highlights the seven steps in implementing a successful metrics program. Clearly written, and supported by helpful case scenarios, various algorithms, and more than 60 equations, Risk Management Processes for Software Engineering Models is a valuable reference tool for software managers, developers, and practitioners. It is useful for computer security and risk assessment managers wanting to extend their field of expertise to software engineering applications, and is an excellent teaching tool for researchers and university professors.
