Abstract

In this paper, we propose a web application for security policy management by using threats-countermeasure model based on international standards. The main objective of this research is to create a knowledge-base to identify and specify the threats that affect the IT environment. In addition, our proposed knowledge-base system intends to fuse similar security controls or objectives to create effectively a security guideline for a specific IT environment. This web application display a detail of the most common threats to the information systems, and for each threat, present a set of related security controls from different international standards including ISO/IEC 27002.
