  • Data Collection on Security Flaws Caused by Design Errors
    Data collection on security flaws caused by design errors Harald Terkelsen Master’s Thesis Master of Science in Information Security 30 ECTS Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Gjøvik University College, 2006 Institutt for informatikk og medieteknikk Høgskolen i Gjøvik Postboks 191 2802 Gjøvik Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Gjøvik University College Box 191 N-2802 Gjøvik Norway Data collection on security flaws caused by design errors Preface After three years of studying in my spare time while working a full time day job, it has not always been easy to find the energy or the time to work on the thesis in the evening after a long day at work first. But the motivation of finishing what I started and getting the master’s degree has kept me going. The time has unfortunately run out, and the thesis is not as complete as I hoped it should be at this time. I would like to thank my employer, Oslo University College (Høgskolen i Oslo), for letting me have days off work to follow the lectures at Gjøvik two days a week, six weeks each semester to pursue the masters degree. I also thank my supervisor Hanno Langweg, who originally proposed the topic, for his feedback on the drafts he reviewed, and also for being patience with my slow progression being a part time student. iii Data collection on security flaws caused by design errors Contents Preface .......................................... iii Contents ......................................... v 1 Introduction ..................................... 1 2 Previous and related work ............................. 5 2.1 Software design ................................. 5 2.1.1 Design principles ...........................
