Measuring the Trustworthiness of Software

ISO standards undergo a systematic review every 5 years . This provides ISO / IEC 5055 an opportunity to update the list of weaknesses in each measure . New classes of severe weaknesses can be added . Empirical evidence from operational and cost of ownership research can cause others to be removed . Thus , ISO / IEC 5055 will be periodically updated as computing technologY , languages , and attack patterns evolve .

6 CONCLUSION ISO 5055 offers an alternative for measuring 4 of the 5 characteristics of Trustworthiness . It will soon provide measures for all 5 characteristics in conjunction with revisions to the quality model in ISO 25010 . The relevant measures⎯Reliability and Security⎯were developed from detecting and counting severe weaknesses that cause Trustworthiness problems . These measures can be used both with third party suppliers and with internal projects to sustain and improve the Trustworthiness of software systems and interconnected IoT devices .
