Towards Security Requirements in Online Summative Assessments
Confidentiality, integrity and availability (C-I-A) are the security requirements fundamental to any computer system. Similarly, the hardware, software and data are important critical assets. These two components of a computer security framework are entwined; such that a compromise in the C-I-A requirements may lead to a compromise of the critical assets. The C-I-A requirements and the critical assets of a computer system are well researched areas; however they may be insufficient to define the needs of a summative e-assessment system. In this paper, we do not discard the existing components; rather we propose security requirements and related components that are specific to summative e-assessment systems
Towards Security Goals in Summative E-Assessment Security
The general security goals of a computer system are known to include confidentiality, integrity and availability (C-I-A) which prevent critical assets from potential threats. The C-I-A security goals are well researched areas; however they may be insufficient to address all the needs of the summative e-assessment. In this paper, we do not discard the fundamental C-I-A security goals; rather we define security goals which are specific to summative e-assessment security
