Security-Aware Refactoring using Information Flow
Kensuke Tokoda, Katsuhisa Maruyama (Ritsumeikan Univ.)
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Vulnerable software is a serious issue since it becomes a key element in the real world. We have proposed a security-aware refactoring which helps programmers avoid unexpected or undesired impact resulting from program modifications. This refactoring is designed to clarify the change (increase and decrease) of the security level of the refactored code. Unfortunately, the conventional mechanism assesses the effects of the change by using a criterion based on the accessibility of the variables storing sensitive data, and thus may provide trivial information with the programmers. This paper describes a new graph representation of data flow labeled with security levels and presents an enhanced mechanism using the graph to provide more sophisticated information about the effects of applied refactorings.
