Abstract
Beyond the network applications there are increasing concerns regarding reducing risks for the security properties of the final product in the embedded systems domain as early as possible during the development cycle. Current design based on security models proved functional but inefficient when designing embedded software systems. This paper aims to attain the main problems in designing embedded software systems in terms of security and draw a minimal security model specifically designed for them. A systematic analysis of the architecture based on design principles and threats modeling at the conceptual level and model-based at the concrete level is the solution that may guarantee the achievement of security policies specified in requirements.
