Collaborative assurance framework for evaluation of security products and services

In order to operate on the Internet and safeguard the critical infrastructure, there is an increasing need for good security measures and practices. At the same time, there is need of highly scalable, continuous and rapid evaluation of security products and services. There is opportunity for collaborative and customized security evaluation and transparency in the security evaluation process. We present a Collaborative Security Assurance Framework for Evaluation (C-SAFE) - a Cloud based framework that provides Security Evaluation as a Service (SEaaS) in a collaborative fashion, promoting transparency, and providing a common platform for comparison.
