3st International Workshop on Secure Software Engineering (SSE 2017)

to be held in conjunction with the 12th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security
(ARES 2017 – http://www.ares-conference.eu)
August 29 – September 1, 2017, Reggio Calabria, Italy


OVERVIEW.

Organizations are required often to produce secure software. They apply a software development and operation processes that integrate activities such as threat modeling, security code analysis, and security code review. The goal of the workshop is to bring together security and software development researchers and practitioners to share their finding, experiences, and positions about developing secure software. The workshop aims to encourage the use of scientific methods to investigate the challenges related to developing secure software. It aims also to increase the communication between security researchers and software development researchers to enable the development of techniques and best practices for developing secure software.
