D4.2.3 – Techniques for Compositional Risk-Based Security Testing v.3
Responsible partner: Fraunhofer FOKUS
Editor: Jürgen Großmann (Fraunhofer FOKUS)
Abstract
WP4 has developed a framework for security testing guided by risk assessment. This framework, starting from security test patterns and test generation models, allows for a compositional security testing approach that is able to deal with large-scale networked systems. This deliverable is the final part of a series of three deliverables (D4.2.1, D4.2.2, D4.2.3) that document how the RASEN approach for risk-based security testing has been evolved through continuous and iterative updates. It provides the final update for the RASEN approach of formalizing test patterns using the Test Purpose Language, and it introduces the RASEN Testing Dash Board for Test Result Aggregation.

D5.3.3 – Methodologies for Legal, Compositional, and Continuous Risk Assessment and Security Testing v.3
Responsible partner: SINTEF
Editors: Fredrik Seehusen (SINTEF), Bjørnar Solhaug (SINTEF)
Abstract
This deliverable documents the application of the RASEN methodology within different processes and for different domains. The processes that are considered are established approaches to software development and security assessment so as to demonstrate the wider applicability and usefulness of the RASEN methodology. Two specific domains are moreover highlighted, namely cybersecurity and cloud sourcing. Both of these are highly relevant given the mainstream ICT infrastructures of today, and they both represent important current and emerging security challenges. The deliverable presents WP5 results from the third and final year of the RASEN project regarding task T5.1 (Methodology for compositional and continuous risk assessment and security testing of large scale networked systems) and T5.2 (Methodology for legal risk assessment and security testing of large scale networked systems).

D3.2.2 – Techniques for Compositional Test Based Security Assessment (v2)
Responsible partner: Software AG
Editor: Bjørnar Solhaug (SINTEF)
Abstract
This deliverable reports on the main results of RASEN WP3 from the second year of the project. The RASEN approach to compositional security risk assessment has been further developed, and this deliverable introduces our notion of risk model encapsulation. We have developed modelling support for composing individual risk models, where the encapsulation allows the models to be combined without having to consider or assess the internal details of the respective models. The techniques and tools for test-based security risk assessment have been extended in several directions. The deliverable presents results covering (semi-)automated risk modelling, security testing, and security test result aggregation. The deliverable finally presents techniques for continuous security risk assessment by monitoring and aggregation of key indicator values, where the indicators provide information about the current risk picture at any point in time.

D4.2.2 – Techniques for Compositional Risk-Based Security Testing
Responsible partner: Fraunhofer
Editor: Martin Schneider (FOKUS)
Abstract
WP4 develops a framework for security testing guided by risk assessment and compositional analysis. This framework, starting from security test patterns and test generation models, aims to propose a compositional security testing approach able to deal with large scale networked systems. This report provides the evolved results based on the previous deliverable D4.2.1. The results comprise risk-based testing using CAPEC attack patterns. An improved security test pattern-based approach for test case generation is presented as well as improvements of the behavioural fuzzing approach in order to address certain vulnerabilities. Test case generation using security test patterns together with a test purpose language is extended for security testing. In addition, first results regarding security testing metrics are described. This deliverable will be refined by D4.2.3.

D5.3.2 – Methodologies for Legal Compositional and Continuous Risk Assessment and Security Testing (v2)
Responsible partner: SINTEF
Editor: Fredrik Seehusen (SINTEF)
Abstract
The methodologies detailed within this document address three distinct domains: security risk assessment, security testing, and legal compliance. What it new with regards to the previous version of the RASEN methodologies, is that the methodologies in the different domains have been unified into an overall picture. In addition to this, the specific RASEN methodologies have been further developed, and examples of their usage are given.

D3.1.1 – Baseline for Compositional Test-Based Security Risk Assessment
Responsible partner: Fraunhofer
Editors: Jürgen Großmann (Fraunhofer), Johannes Viehmann (Fraunhofer)
Abstract
The overall objective of RASEN WP3 is to develop tools and techniques for compositional and test-based security risk assessment. This deliverable presents the industrial and scientific state of the art related to this objective. The presentation is structured according to the main research tasks of WP3, which are to develop support for i) compositional security risk assessment, ii) test-based risk identification and estimation, and iii) continuous risk assessment of large scale systems by use of test-based indicators. Considering the state of the art and the research objectives of WP3, we moreover identify the baseline for the WP3 research activities. The baseline is the tools and techniques that may serve as promising starting points for further development. The identification of the baseline was guided by the relevant research questions that are addressed by the RASEN project.

D3.2.1 – Techniques for Compositional Test-Based Security Assessment v.1
Responsible partner: Software AG
Editors: Bjørnar Solhaug (SINTEF), Frank Werner (SAG)
Abstract
This deliverable reports on the results of RASEN WP3 after the first year of the project. The tasks that have been addressed are (T3.1) the development of techniques for compositional security risk assessment and (T3.2) the development of techniques for test-based security risk assessment. The sections of the deliverable are structured into three main themes. The first theme is an industry-viewpoint discussion of existing approaches, and a motivation for the work presented in this deliverable. The two other themes cover research tasks T3.1 and T3.2, respectively. Regarding compositional security risk assessment, we discuss the underlying principles of compositionality and explain how these apply to the setting of risk assessment. We furthermore present our formal foundation for compositional security risk assessment, as well as an extension of CORAS to facilitate component-based risk assessment. Regarding test-based security risk assessment, we present our approach to complement the risk picture using test results, and how we plan to use security indicators and risk metrics to aggregate low-level test results to make use of them in the more high-level risk assessment.

Responsible partner: Fraunhofer
Editors: Martin Schneider (FOKUS)
Abstract
Work package 4 will develop a framework for security testing guided by risk assessment and compositional analysis. This framework, starting from security test patterns and test generation models, aims to propose a compositional security testing approach able to deal with large scale networks systems. This report provides the first results for how test cases can be derived from risk assessment results by means of risk-based test identification and prioritization, security test patterns and test case generation using security test patterns together with a test purpose language extended for security testing. This is based on the baseline defined in RASEN deliverable D4.1.1 and will be refined and complemented by the subsequent RASEN deliverables D4.2.2 and D4.2.3.

D5.2.1 – Risk Assessment and Security Testing Toolbox Requirements and Design
Responsible partner: Fraunhofer
Editors: Jürgen Großmann (FOKUS)
Abstract
The overall idea of the RASEN project is to combine security risk assessment with security testing. Typically security risk assessment and testing are supported by different tools, often multiple tools. In contrast, the RASEN risk assessment and security testing toolbox aim explicitly to the integration of data from security risk assessment and security testing. This deliverable outlines the integration requirements and the initial design of the RASEN risk assessment and security testing toolbox.
