Abstract

The paper discusses the need of design assurance at the design level, examining how security flaws can easily be corrected before and during the implementation phase. Design assurance flaws, however, are only discovered when the system has gone through testing and is harder to repair. While design assurance is proven to work and enforce the necessary requirements needed for the system it is not frequently implemented and is often abandoned. This paper will examine how assurance during system and software design and design techniques should be applied to all systems. The paper needs to discuss the corresponding limitations of these solutions and then provide recommendations.
