Welcome to the Southern Maryland Chapter

Founded in February, 1998, the Southern Maryland Chapter follows the INCOSE International Mission, Vision and Goals. 

Additionally, we will:

  • Continue our outreach program to support systems engineering conferences and events at both the Regional and International levels of INCOSE
  • Continue to build partnerships with local professional associations offering unique and diverse systems engineering insights while complimenting their inherent interest areas

INCOSE/GfSE Webinar 7: STAMP/STPA – A Systems Theory Approach to Analyze Security Concerns

Meeting Title: STAMP/STPA – A Systems Theory Approach  to Analyze Security Concerns

Click to download GfSE - INCOSE Webinar 7 Invitation!


Presenter Name: D.Sc. Daniel Patrick Pereira
Date: Wednesday, 4 May 2022
Time EDT: 11:00 am- 12:00 pm EST (4:00 pm – 5:00 pm UTC; 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm CET) 

Abstract 

In this webinar, Daniel will discuss the importance of conducting a security risk assessment in early stages of system development. He will present different standards that cover the security risk assessment process.

The demand for security increases tremendously for modern, complex software-intensive systems with increased communication and the application of new technologies. To cope with complexity, new methods have to be developed and integrated into the overall system engineering process to lead with the challenges of running a system as part of a system of systems.

To address this issue, Daniel will introduce the STAMP/STPA methodology conceived by Prof. Nancy Levenson from MIT applied in the security domain. Using a simple example, he will demonstrate the application of STAMP/STPA for security and how this approach could be compliant with an aeronautical standard ED-202A/DO-326A.

Take-Away Key Message

  • Ensure that SE practice and techniques are up to the job coping with evolved complexity
  • Integrate security assessment process in system development process
  • Conduct security assessment in early stages of system development

The Southern Maryland Chapter of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) began in February 1998.  The core group of organizers recognized the sizable Systems Engineering infrastructure  in the Patuxent River area created by the presence of the Naval Air Systems Command, the Naval Air Warfare Center (Aircraft Division and Field Activity at St. Indigos), the Naval Air Station, and a growing community of Industry partners.
