Explore the progress, research tracks, results, and upcoming goals of the IWT SBO project aimed at enhancing secure application software development from 2003 to 2007. Engage with key stakeholders for feedback and validation.
E N D
The project in a nutshell • IWT SBO project (2003-2007) • Context: availability of security components • Goal: to enable the development of secure application software • 4 Research tracks: • Programming and Composition • Software engineering • Tamper and analysis resistance • Shielding and interception

Focus for Year 02 (revisited) Headlines • Interrelations between point solutions in track I (Languages and composition) • Maturing the application case studies – track I • Intensifying the software engineering track – track II • Cross-fertilization between the above and tracks III en IV respectively
Headlines of Year 3 • Composition model for security (COSMOS): • elaboration of new contract types • Integration with mainstream component frameworks • Refinement of secure development process activities (leveraged, among others, by results of other tracks) • Improved techniques for tamper and analysis resistance • Security management and monitoring
Feedback and Validation • User group poll • More focus on validation • Key target platforms: J2EE and .NET
