Abstract
In October 1986, the Centre for Software Reliability sponsored a symposium on Safety and Security. Held in Glasgow, the aim of this symposium was to explore the proposition that safety and security were duals and that there would be much to be gained by the one adopting the knowledge, understanding, tools and techniques of the other, and vice versa. The symposium [Anderson 89] concluded that “the differences between the topics of Reliability, Safety and Security are more than sheer semantics” but that “there are many similarities which we would be wise to explore”.
