摘要:Recently, the need to improve the security of software has become a key issue for developers. The securityfunction needs to be incorporated into the software development process at the requirement, analysis,design, and implementation stages as doing so may help to smooth integration and to protect systems fromattack. Security affects all aspects of a software program, which makes the incorporation of securityfeatures a crosscutting concern. Therefore this paper looks at the feasibility and potential advantages ofemploying an aspect orientation approach in the software development lifecycle to ensure efficientintegration of security. It also proposes a model called the Aspect-Oriented Software Security DevelopmentLife Cycle (AOSSDLC), which covers arrange of security activities and deliverables for each developmentstage. It is concluded that aspect orientation is one of the best options available for installing securityfeatures not least because of the benefit that no changes need to be made to the existing software structure.
