  1. 1. Usability of Firewall Configuration : Making the Life of System Administrators Easier

    Author : Artem Voronkov; Stefan Lindskog; Leonardo Martucci; John Sören Pettersson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; network security; usable security; firewall configuration; firewall interfaces; usability metrics; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Firewalls are an important component of network security that serve to protect networks by regulating incoming and outgoing traffic. However, setting up firewalls correctly is a challenging task, which becomes more difficult with the growth of the network's size. READ MORE

  2. 2. Usable Firewall Rule Sets

    Author : Artem Voronkov; Stefan Lindskog; Kami Vaniea; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Network Security; Usable Security; Firewall Configuration; Systematic Literature Review; Usability Metrics; User Studies; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Correct functioning is the most important requirement for any system. Nowadays there are a lot of threats to computer systems that undermine confidence in them and, as a result, force a user to abandon their use. Hence, a system cannot be trusted if there is no proper security provided. READ MORE

  3. 3. Some Problems in Quantified Security

    Author : Vilhelm Verendel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computer security; quantified risk; quantified security; risk behavior; operational risk; security metrics; information security; survey; quantitative models; decision-making; risk perception;

    Abstract : This thesis contains work related to quantitative representation and analysis of computer and information security. The ability to accurately describe security using quantitative methods could offer better control and evaluation of security in operational settings. READ MORE

  4. 4. Handling of curvilinear coordinates in a PDE solver framework

    Author : Malin Ljungberg; Michael Thuné; Kurt Otto; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsvetenskap; Scientific Computing;

    Abstract : By the use of object-oriented analysis and design combined with variability modeling a highly flexible software model for the metrics handling functionality of a PDE solver framework was obtained. This new model was evaluated in terms of usability, particularly with respect to efficiency and flexibility. READ MORE

  5. 5. Foundation of Multi-Criteria Quality Scoring

    Author : Maria Ulan; Anna Wingkvist; Harald Störrle; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Data- och informationsvetenskap; Computer and Information Sciences Computer Science;

    Abstract : Software quality becomes more critical as our dependence on software increases. We need better quality assessment than ever. Comparison and ranking of software artifacts, detection of bad or good quality are important tasks for quality assessment.Software quality models are widely used to support quality assessment.
