However, we are in a continuous loop of mitigating dynamically changing assets caused by both internal and external threats.ĭespite increasing attention to consumers in developing markets, few studies explicitly explore the psychological mechanisms underlying their attitudes toward global brands from developed versus developing countries. In this paper, we explore possible security states from the insider's perspective, as there are more security incidents initiated from inside than outside an organization. If we can predict each asset's security state prior to its actual state, we would have a good risk indicator for the organization's mission-critical assets. Therefore, it is accurate to say that each asset changes its security state within its mitigated, vulnerable, or compromised, state.

The secure state is only temporary and imaginary it may never exist. Each asset can change its security status from secure, mitigated, vulnerable, or compromised states. Risk assessments may present inaccurate or false data if the organizational assets change in their security postures.

The model is illustrated using a simulated case study based on a real-time dataset from the NASA software repository.Ĭonducting risk assessment on organizational assets can be time consuming, burdensome, and misleading in many cases because of the dynamically changing security states of assets. The least tested and "high usage " input subdomains are identified and necessary remedial actions are taken depending on the predicted results from the proposed model. Memory-Based Reasoning technique and Bayesian Belief Networks are used as reasoning tools to guide the prediction analysis. The model uses AI reasoning techniques on dynamically collected failure data of each service and its components as one of the evidences together with results from random testing. The services are assumed to be realized with reuse and logical composition of components. This paper presents a reliability assessment and prediction model for SOA-based systems. However, deriving high confidence reliability estimates for mission- critical systems can require huge costs and time. While the SOA paradigm provides flexibility and agility to better respond to changing business requirements, the task of assessing the reliability of SOA-based systems is challenging, especially for composite services. Service-oriented architecture (SOA) techniques are being increasingly used for developing critical applications, especially network-centric systems. Le modèle obtenu est utilisé pour reproduire et modéliser le comportement des processus logistiques, ensuite simuler le déroulement de leurs opérations, à la fois, en mode nominal et/ou en mode dégradé. Les états de fonctionnement, faisant intervenir des menaces, sont représentés dans un modèle de comportement basé sur les réseaux de Petri. Il s’agit d’une technique de quantification permettant d’évaluer, à des points discrets, la probabilité de réalisation des scénarii de fonctionnement redoutés, ainsi que leurs impacts sur la performance logistique. Nous proposons, dans le cadre cette thése de recherche, une nouvelle méthode pour l’évaluation dynamique des états du risque dans les flux opérationnels d’un système logistique que nous avons intilulé KRIs Cost based-FMEA. Pour être compétitives, les chaînes logistiques doivent être capables d’analyser et d’évaluer en temps réel les écarts critiques entre les actions issues de la gestion prévisionnelle à court terme et les actions réellement exécutées engendrant des états de risque indésirables ou inacceptables. Our initial pilot results reveal that it is possible to drive the number of change failures down significantly using our novel Risk Engine. We describe the recipe for creating the Risk Engine along with several user studies we have conducted to justify our design choices at each step. We present a novel Risk Engine, which takes into account a rich, dynamic change context to calculate and mitigate the risk of a service related change in real-time with increased accuracy and reliability. Such deficiencies of the standard practice to assess risk of a change may, thus, result in inaccurate assessment, which can lead to unmitigated risks, ultimately materializing as failures. Further, in the questionnaire method, a fixed set of questions implies that the change context is assumed to be the same regardless of the type of change being raised, whereas in practice, no two changes are truly identical. Assessing the risk of a change, thus, relies heavily on one person’s opinion. Today, the risk of a service related change is typically assessed at change record creation time by a Change Requester either manually or through answering a fixed set of questions.
