Patent attributes
A web application security frame (e.g., schema) that can incorporate expertise into an engineering activity, for example, a threat modeling activity, is provided. The novel web application security frame component can be applied to a threat modeling component to converge knowledge into the activity by identifying categories, vulnerabilities, threats, attacks and countermeasures. The novel schema can create a common framework that converges knowledge with respect to any application engineering activity (e.g., threat modeling, performance modeling). Additionally, a context precision mechanism can be employed to automatically and/or dynamically determine a context of a web application environment. This context can be used to automatically generate an appropriate web application security frame component.
