Abstract
A method and a system for evaluation of risk of conflict between a number of integrating security solutions. In a computer system, a number of fragmentary security solutions are received. A set of the received fragmentary security solutions is integrated to form a composite security solution to satisfy a number of security requirements. In one aspect, the security requirements are established during a design of a computer system. A risk of conflict between the set of integrating fragmentary security solutions is evaluated. In another aspect, the risk of conflict between the set of integrating fragmentary security solutions exists at authority level and at configuration level. Conflict at authority level arises when different authorities control the same fragmentary security solution. Conflict at configuration level arises when integrating fragmentary security solutions share configuration data.
