Formalized aspect-oriented misuse case for specifying crosscutting security threats and mitigations.

ABSTRACT: Software applications are essential for managing daily life activities, including social interactions and business transactions, that significantly increase the need for security in sharing sensitive information. Misuse case modeling is used for identifying and analyzing security requirements in software applications. However, security threats and their corresponding mitigations are inherently cross-cutting concerns. These concerns are scattered and tangled within multiple functional requirements and cannot be modularized using traditional object-oriented techniques. The realization of misuse cases causes crosscutting threats and corresponding mitigations to be scattered and tangled across use cases, resulting in ambiguity, incomplete understanding, and insufficient analysis of security re
