Security Compliant Manager for Business Application Development
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional business application development environments fail to adequately address security requirements during the design phases, leading to late detection of security gaps and increased demand for secure software solutions.
Innovation Solution
A computer system with a security compliant manager that manages business application development by defining security relevance and rules for business objects, using a built-in security enforcement framework to classify entities, assign security rules, and validate their fulfillment through security runtime modules.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional business application development environments are used, then ease of development and use of software applications is provided, but security requirements are not adequately addressed during design phases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments security management into distinct functional components: a security relevance handler that classifies entities by security importance, a security rules handler that defines security requirements, and a validation handler that verifies compliance. This segmentation allows security to be addressed systematically without overwhelming the entire development framework.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary security classification and rule assignment during the design phase rather than during implementation or testing. By classifying entities and assigning security rules beforehand, the system ensures security requirements are embedded in the architecture from the outset, preventing late detection of security gaps.
2Reliability
If security requirements are addressed later in development, then initial development speed is maintained, but security gaps are detected late requiring rework
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary security classification and rule assignment during the design phase rather than during implementation or testing. By classifying entities and assigning security rules beforehand, the system ensures security requirements are embedded in the architecture from the outset, preventing late detection of security gaps.
Solution Approach 2:
The validation handler provides continuous feedback by verifying whether security rules are fulfilled during development. This feedback mechanism allows developers to identify and correct security compliance issues early in the development process rather than discovering them during testing or deployment.
3Reliability
If a comprehensive security enforcement framework is implemented, then security compliance is improved, but development process complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments security management into distinct functional components: a security relevance handler that classifies entities by security importance, a security rules handler that defines security requirements, and a validation handler that verifies compliance. This segmentation allows security to be addressed systematically without overwhelming the entire development framework.
Solution Approach 2:
The security enforcement framework is designed to work universally across different business applications and entities. By creating a generalized framework that can classify and enforce security rules for any entity type, the system avoids creating separate complex security mechanisms for each application, thereby reducing overall process complexity.

AI summary
In accordance with aspects of the disclosure, a system and methods are provided for managing development of business applications. The system and methods may be provided for defining security relevance for data types associated with business objects, defining security rules for the data types associated with the business objects, and defining validation and test fulfillment of the security rules by providing one or more security runtime modules for each security rule defined by the security rules handler to ensure validation and test fulfillment of each security rule.
