Abstract
This article addresses a key issue in security: how to inspire trust by disclosing security properties of software components to others in a component-based software development environment. The authors introduce a component security characterization framework in this endeavor that characterizes security properties by exposing software security profiles to others. The active interface lets software engineers know up front the impact of security properties of a composition´s candidate components
