Publication: January\/February 2025<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nThe security of software systems is a growing societal concern, and software engineers are routinely called upon to \u201cdo more\u201d to ensure that the software they write is secure.\u00a0 However, despite the existence of many processes and tools, including programming languages, testing and analysis techniques, the number of technical breaches remains challenging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThis special issue of IEEE Security & Privacy<\/em> will examine how software is secured through the fundamental engineering activities that precede the production, testing, and analysis of code. It will focus on early secure software development such as requirements engineering, architecture, and design. \u202fWe interpret security broadly to include security, privacy, and forensics and from a socio-technical perspective, in which the concern is collectively addressed by software engineering professionals, their companies, and clients.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nWe invite submissions that extend and challenge current understanding about how to facilitate the production of secure software before code is written. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nSoftware Requirements<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Frameworks and models for eliciting and representing security requirements\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
