IEEE Computer Society's Center for Secure Design - Helping You Design More Secure Software

Presented at AppSec USA 2014, Sept. 18, 2014, 9:30 a.m. (45 minutes)

The IEEE Computer Society's CSD (Center for Secure Design) was formed in 2014 with the goal of identifying common design flaws and creating tools or design patterns so architects and developers can avoid introducing those design flaws into software. The CSD aims to create artifacts to aid in the analysis of software design and additional artifacts to aid in designing software for security. This presentation will outline the results of the first workshop convened in May of this year where the Top N design flaws were documented, and also discuss some of the goals of future IEEE CSD workshops.
