Application Security in the ISO 27001: 2013 Environment by Vinod Vasudevan Pdf

Web application security as part of an ISO27001-compliant information security management system As cyber security threats proliferate and attacks escalate, and as applications play an increasingly critical role in business, organisations urgently need to focus on web application security to protect their customers, their interests and their assets. SMEs in particular should be very concerned about web application security: many use common, off-the-shelf applications and plugins - such as Internet Explorer, Java, Silverlight, and Adobe Reader and Flash Player - which often contain exploitable vulnerabilities. Application Security in the ISO27001 Environment explains how organisations can implement and maintain effective security practices to protect their web applications - and the servers on which they reside - as part of a wider information security management system by following the guidance set out in the international standard for information security management, ISO27001. The book describes the methods used by criminal hackers to attack organisations via their web applications and provides a detailed explanation of how you can combat such attacks by employing the guidance and controls set out in ISO27001. This second edition is updated to reflect ISO27001:2013 as well as best practices relating to cryptography, including the PCI SSC's denigration of SSL in favour of TLS. Application Security in the ISO27001 Environment is written by Vinod Vasudevan, Anoop Mangla, Firosh Ummer, Sachin Shetty, Sangita Pakala and Siddharth Anbalahan. Together, the authors offer a wealth of expertise in ISO27001 information security, risk management and software application development.

Application security is a major issue for CIOs. Application Security in the ISO27001 Environment demonstrates how to secure software applications using ISO/IEC 27001. It does this in the context of a wider roll out of an information security management system (ISMS) that conforms to ISO/IEC 27001. Together, the authors offer a wealth of expertise in ISO27001 information security, risk management and software application development. Over 224 pages, they address a range of essential topics, including an introduction to ISO27001 and ISO27002, secure development lifecycles, threat profiling and security testing, and secure coding guidelines. As well as showing how to use ISO27001 to secure individual applications, the book demonstrates how to tackle this issue as part of the development and roll out of an organisation-wide Information Security Management System conforming to the Standard. Software packages are the conduits to critical business data, thus securing applications adequately is of the utmost importance.

Pattern and Security Requirements by Kristian Beckers Pdf

Security threats are a significant problem for information technology companies today. This book focuses on how to mitigate these threats by using security standards and provides ways to address associated problems faced by engineers caused by ambiguities in the standards. The security standards are analysed, fundamental concepts of the security standards presented, and the relations to the elementary concepts of security requirements engineering (SRE) methods explored. Using this knowledge, engineers can build customised methods that support the establishment of security standards. Standards such as Common Criteria or ISO 27001 are explored and several extensions are provided to well-known SRE methods such as Si*, CORAS, and UML4PF to support the establishment of these security standards. Through careful analysis of the activities demanded by the standards, for example the activities to establish an Information Security Management System (ISMS) in compliance with the ISO 27001 standard, methods are proposed which incorporate existing security requirement approaches and patterns. Understanding Pattern and Security Requirements engineering methods is important for software engineers, security analysts and other professionals that are tasked with establishing a security standard, as well as researchers who aim to investigate the problems with establishing security standards. The examples and explanations in this book are designed to be understandable by all these readers.
