System trustworthiness modelling Clause Samples

System trustworthiness modelling. The other approach that is relevant to 5G-ENSURE involves creating a model of the system, which can then be analysed to detect potential threats and identify potential countermeasures. The analyst using such a model is then able to improve trustworthiness (by specifying countermeasures to reduce risks), or at least highlight where users or system components may need to trust other parts of the system. This approach is especially useful if the models can capture risks (and trust) in relation to system components involved in threats, and thus provide insights on how the system architecture and design lead to those specific risks being present. Many methods have been developed to try to identify and analyse threats in ICT-based systems. [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2014] breaks the threat modelling process down into four stages: system modelling, threat identification, threat addressing, and validation. Threat identification is usually the most difficult step, for which a range of methodologies have been devised. Three broad classes are normally used:  Asset centric methods: are based on analysing the system to identify assets that contribute to its success, then identifying ways those assets (or their contribution) may be compromised.  Attacker centric methods: are based on understanding who might attack the system and what means they might be able to use, and then identifying where the system may be vulnerable to those attacks.  Software centric methods: are based on finding potential vulnerabilities in the software assets in the system, with a view to guiding implementers to avoid introducing them. Software centric methods are most amenable to automated analysis. For example, Microsoft’s Secure Development Lifecycle (SDL) framework [▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2009] can be supported by STRIDE [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2004] which is a secure software design tool designed to help developers identify and address threats from spoofing, tempering, repudiation, denial of service, information disclosure, and elevation of privilege. The main problem with automated software centric methods is that the vulnerability databases they use are often quite specific, e.g. based on specific known vulnerabilities in specific operating systems, platforms or application software. Ultimately, the goal is to help programmers avoid making errors, and today the most common approach is still based on raising awareness and providing checklists such as the OWASP Top 10 [OWASP 2013] which are used for manual analysis by software devel...

  • SERVICE MONITORING, ANALYSES AND ORACLE SOFTWARE 11.1 We continuously monitor the Services to facilitate Oracle’s operation of the Services; to help resolve Your service requests; to detect and address threats to the functionality, security, integrity, and availability of the Services as well as any content, data, or applications in the Services; and to detect and address illegal acts or violations of the Acceptable Use Policy. Oracle monitoring tools do not collect or store any of Your Content residing in the Services, except as needed for such purposes. Oracle does not monitor, and does not address issues with, non-Oracle software provided by You or any of Your Users that is stored in, or run on or through, the Services. Information collected by Oracle monitoring tools (excluding Your Content) may also be used to assist in managing Oracle’s product and service portfolio, to help Oracle address deficiencies in its product and service offerings, and for license management purposes. 11.2 We may (i) compile statistical and other information related to the performance, operation and use of the Services, and (ii) use data from the Services in aggregated form for security and operations management, to create statistical analyses, and for research and development purposes (clauses i and ii are collectively referred to as “Service Analyses”). We may make Service Analyses publicly available; however, Service Analyses will not incorporate Your Content, Personal Data or Confidential Information in a form that could serve to identify You or any individual. We retain all intellectual property rights in Service Analyses. 11.3 We may provide You with the ability to obtain certain Oracle Software (as defined below) for use with the Services. If we provide Oracle Software to You and do not specify separate terms for such software, then such Oracle Software is provided as part of the Services and You have the non-exclusive, worldwide, limited right to use such Oracle Software, subject to the terms of this Agreement and Your order (except for separately licensed elements of the Oracle Software, which separately licensed elements are governed by the applicable separate terms), solely to facilitate Your use of the Services. You may allow Your Users to use the Oracle Software for this purpose, and You are responsible for their compliance with the license terms. Your right to use any Oracle Software will terminate upon the earlier of our notice (by web posting or otherwise) or the end of the Services associated with the Oracle Software. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Oracle Software is licensed to You under separate terms, then Your use of such software is governed by the separate terms. Your right to use any part of the Oracle Software that is licensed under the separate terms is not restricted in any way by this Agreement.
