Abstract :
Different norms demand the measurment of IT-security. But how the measurement should be carried out, is not part of the norms. To compare the results of the different methods and tools with each other, it is necessary to validate the measuring tools. The scientific validation of measuring tools in the area of IT-security raises many questions that have not been discussed not to mention answered.
