Abstract
The Network of Excellence on Engineering Secure Future Internet Software
Services and Systems (NESSoS) (2010-2014) aims at constituting and
integrating a long lasting research community on engineering secure
software-based services and systems.
The NESSoS engineering of secure software services is based on the
principle of addressing security concerns from the very beginning in
system analysis and design, thus contributing to reduce the amount of
system and service vulnerabilities and enabling the systematic treatment
of security needs through the engineering process. In light of the
unique security requirements the Future Internet will expose, new
results will be achieved by means of an integrated research, as to
improve the necessary assurance level and to address risk and cost
during the software development cycle in order to prioritize and manage
investments. NESSoS will integrate the research labs involved; NESSoS
will re-address, integrate, harmonize and foster the research activities
in the necessary areas, and will increase and spread the research
excellence. NESSoS will also impact training and education activities in
Europe to grow a new generation of skilled researchers and
practitioners in the area. NESSoS will collaborate with industrial
stakeholders to improve the industry best practices and support a rapid
growth of software-based service systems in the Future Internet.
The research excellence of NESSoS will contribute to increase the
trustworthiness of the Future Internet by improving the overall security
of software services and systems. This will support European
competitiveness in this vital area.
