Jin, Shipu.  2022.  Research on Computer Network Security Framework Based on Concurrent Data Detection and Security Modelling. 2022 International Conference on Sustainable Computing and Data Communication Systems (ICSCDS). :1144–1147.
A formal modeling language MCD for concurrent systems is proposed, and its syntax, semantics and formal definitions are given. MCD uses modules as basic components, and that the detection rules are not perfect, resulting in packets that do not belong to intrusion attacks being misjudged as attacks, respectively. Then the data detection algorithm based on MCD concurrency model protects hidden computer viruses and security threats, and the efficiency is increased by 7.5% Finally, the computer network security protection system is researched based on security modeling.

Complex embedded systems often contain hard to find vulnerabilities which, when exploited, have potential to cause severe damage to the operating environment and the user. Given that threats and vulnerabilities can exist within any layer of the complex eco-system, OEMs face a major challenge to ensure security throughout the device life-cycle To lower the potential risk and damage that vulnerabilities may cause, OEMs typically perform application threat analysis and security modelling. This process typically provides a high level guideline to solving security problems which can then be implemented during design and development. However, this concept presents issues where new threats or unknown vulnerability has been discovered. To address this issue, we propose a policy-based security modelling approach, which utilises a configurable policy engine to apply new policies that counter serious threats. By utilising this approach, the traditional security modelling approaches can be enhanced and the consequences of a new threat greatly reduced. We present a realistic use case of connected car, applying several attack scenarios. By utilising STRIDE threat modelling and DREAD risk assessment model, adequate policies are derived to protect the car assets. This approach poses advantages over the standard approach, allowing a policy update to counter a new threat, which may have otherwise required a product redesign to alleviate the issue under the traditional approach.
