When you are in charge of building software from the ground up, software security can be encouraged through the use of secure software development methodologies. However, how can you measure the security of a given piece of software that you didn’t write yourself? In other words, when looking at two executables, what does “a is more secure than b” mean? This paper examines some approaches to me...

Computer software is developed according to software engineering methodologies. However, as more of the economy and our social lives move online, software security has become a topic of increasing importance. Traditionally, courses in software security are offered at the graduate level or in a stand-alone course at the undergraduate level, with many undergraduate students being required to appl...

Security Testing helps in protecting the software against unanticipated actions. The target of security testing is to provide assurance regarding that the software is safe and secure. Security testing is very helpful in identifying loop holes and security risk in the software. Our Objective is to provide comprehensive survey of security Testing methods and Techniques where security Testing Tech...

Software security has attracted the attention of researchers in the area of security during the last years due to the proven fact that most attacks to businesses and organizations exploit software vulnerabilities. Moreover, the need to impose some level of security already at the design phase has been recognized. Therefore, software design patterns with the target of enhancing the security of s...
