Abstract

This paper describes a software product line approach to design secure connectors in distributed component-based software architectures. The variability of secure connectors is modelled by means of a feature model, which consists of security pattern and communication pattern features. Applying separation of concerns, each secure connector is designed as a composite component that encapsulates both security pattern and communication pattern components. Integration of these components within a secure connector is enabled by a security coordinator, the high-level template of which is customized based on the selected security pattern features.
