New Threat Assessment Tool for Software Systems

In cooperation with Siemens AG, the Software Engineering chair of Prof. Heisel develops a tool for the vulnerability assessment of software systems. A particular focus is put on the combination of current research results in the field of software security with industrial applications.

In cooperation with Siemens AG, the Software Engineering chair of Prof. Heisel develops a tool for the vulnerability assessment of software systems. A particular focus is put on the combination of current research results in the field of software security with industrial applications.

The tool to be developed provides a user-friendly, graphical user interface for modelling the system. Afterwards, the tool identifies and suggests possible threats to the user for further treatment.

In the further course of the project, the effectiveness of the automatic identification will be evaluated on the basis of practical case studies.
