XSDL -
Extensible Security Document Language
PROJECT MANAGER: THOMAS JONES
XSDL, the eXtensible Security Document Language, is a markup language
to develop, store and exchange data objects for security documentation.
Through the use of the industry standard Extensible Markup Language
(XML) and it's associated security technologies; we are presented with
the capability to define and regulate data types, limiting
constraints, and authorized structure of data objects commonly found
in security documentation. By limiting these facets of the structured
data objects utilized in today's security technologies, the complexity
and cost of security administration are reduced greatly. Furthermore,
the return on investment of security technologies such as the Open
Source Security Testing Methodology are increased exponentially.
Technically, this language presents a security practitioner with
industry standardized digital signature, authentication and encryption
algorithms to secure the derived structured data objects and/or
documents. Which results in providing the security practitioner the
assurance that sufficient logical access control may be constructed
and observed over each structured data object independently or
collectively. Conceptually, this presents the security practitioner
the ability to reduce encumbering security administration overhead and
can now focus their attention entirely on the acquisition and applicability of
data objects and their content.
