This document defines a resource-oriented approach for security automation information publication, discovery, and sharing. Using this approach, producers may publish, share, and exchange representations of software descriptors, security incidents, attack indicators, software vulnerabilities, configuration checklists, and other security automation information as web-addressable resources.
An Obligation is an expression of non-functional or cross-cutting requirements, the scope of which transcends any specific service, but for which the service bears an enforcement responsibility. Example use cases include regulations imposed on handling of Electronic Health Records. We describe the concept of an Obligation, provide example use cases, and then define a general design pattern for when a REST developer should consider their use. We then describe a proof-of-concept implementation that extends the Spring Security framework to support the assertion of Obligations within a RESTful service deployment. This extension may be used to inject a range of Obligation behaviors into a REST service during the design, deployment, and post deployment phases. Our prototype is compatible with the XACML 3.0 core standard.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
