B4MSecure : B for Modeling Secure Information Systems

B4MSecure is an Eclipse platform dedicated to formally reason about data models and associated access control policies. The platform acts on three steps :

  • Graphical data modeling with UML class diagrams using the Papyrus tool
  • Modeling of security policies using a UML profile (SecureUML) for the Role Based Access Control (RBAC) model
  • Translation of both models into B specifications in order to formally reason about them and find possible insider threats.

The B4MSecure platform is distributed under the LGPL v3 licence.
