Abstract

requirement engineering live in a world were contradiction is the norm. Hence, development of software engineering is usually an adjustable and upgrading cyclical process. We found in the literature that some requirements conflict with other requirements. We will focus in this study on identification and resolution of conflicts between security and privacy requirements. Although, most the recent studies focus on identifying conflicts without proposing a solution to resolve it. This paper presents an approach to identifying and resolving conflicting privacy and security requirements as patterns. By using patterns to describe the problem we can propose a solution for each conflict.
