A Context-Aware Framework for Adaptive Software Security

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Dynamically changing environments and threat landscapes require adaptive software that enables the change and modification of security mechanisms at runtime. Research has been conducted with two different emphases in this area: context-awareness and self-protection. Research focused on context-awareness is more concerned with how to model, process, and manage contextual information, but is limited in its understanding of how a system adapts itself in response to unanticipated security changes in the context information. On the other hand, research into self-protection focuses more on how to adapt the system's structure and/or behavior in response to requirements and/or unanticipated security changes, but pays less attention to how the context is modeled, processed, and managed.
