Security and dependability solutions for networks and devices

Abstract

In this chapter we give an overview over the denotation of the SERENITY artefacts S&D Classes, Patterns and Implementations in the context of networks and devices. In order to demonstrate their necessity we sketch an example for confidential and authentic communication and storage that utilizes a trusted platform module, and model the relevant pattern. We then dissociate solutions for network and device related S&D requirements from those targeting the context of organizational or workflow and web services based solutions. Then we give a summary of the broad field of application for network and device solutions. Finally we clarify the meaning and interaction between classes, patterns and implementations by giving some concrete examples. © Springer Science + Business Media, LLC 2009.
