Abstract

For decades, the security community has undertaken detailed research into specific areas of security, while largely ignoring the design process. Software architecture has emerged as an important sub-discipline of software engineering, particularly in the realm of large system development. This paper describes how security architectural patterns lack of a comprehensive and complete well-structured documentation that conveys essential information of their logical structure, deployment-time, run-time behaviour, monitoring configuration, and so on. Thus we will propose a viewpoints model for describing security architectural patterns. We will investigate security architectural patterns from several IEEE 1471-2000 compliant viewpoints and develop an example that demonstrates how to describe a security architectural pattern with viewpoints. We will make use of well-known language notations such as UML to maximize comprehensibility.
