Abstract

AbstractSoftware security is a branch of computer security that addresses enforcement of secure behavior of development and operation of software systems. Computer security consists of four layers: crypto, protocols, systems and languages, and applications. Although the crypto and protocol layers often involve software and operating systems, and because programming language are in essence software, software security is concerned primarily with security issues at the application layer. It is built on the crypto, protocols, and systems and language layers. The goal is to prevent, detect, and recover from software attacks that violate application‐specific security requirements with respect to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA). Confidentiality, integrity, and availability refer to the concealment, trustworthiness, and desired use of information and resources.
