A Survey on Security Requirements Elicitation and Presentation in Requirements Engineering Phase

Secure software development is the new attention of current world in recent days. Security is the key issue for assuring the quality full software. Since, security is one the non-functional requirement most of the times it is ignored in the requirements phase. But, it is possible to reduce software development cost and time to identify user security requirement in the early stage of the software development process. IT security must apply to ensure the reliable system and protect assets of the business organization. In this scene, the main deal is to present the user security requirements combining with user functional requirements which are collected form requirement phase in Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Secure Software Development Life Cycle (SSDLC) start from security requirements. If we can elicit user security requirements and present these requirements in requirements phase then secure software develop will be ensure from the very beginning. In industry and academic, there are several methods to elicit and analyze the user security requirements, but few methods are efficient for identifying and presenting the user security requirements. This paper reflects the current research on software user security requirements elicitation techniques in requirements engineering phase. We try to identify the research trend, based on related published work.
