The number of security attacks and the impact has grown considerably in recent several years. As a result, new emerging software development models are required that assist developing is secure by default. This article reviews most widely used models. It proposes Security Assurance Model (SAM) for Software Development adaptable to all contemporary scenarios, emphasizing global (GSD) vendor comp...

We provide a state-of-the-art explication of application security and software protection. The relationship between application security and data security, network security, and software security is discussed. Three simplified threat models for software are sketched. To better understand what attacks must be defended against in order to improve software security, we survey software attack appro...

Security is a peak significant quality element in the pitch of software engineering. Software security improvement is easily done with the support of factors, models and metrics of security. Software security should be analyzed with the help of its security factors. Security dimension is the main attribute in evaluation, executing, and calculating security in the way to organize and develop qua...
