Traditional models of trust between vendors and buyers fail to live up to the

expectations of a global economy built on an electronic marketplace. Alternative quantifications of trust based on systematic methods for threat identification and risk analysis may offer better evaluations of transaction risk in this environment. CORAS will develop a practical framework for a precise, unambiguous and efficient risk analysis, by exploiting the synthesis of risk analysis methods with object oriented modelling, semiformal methods and tools. This framework will provide a general and modular approach to realising systems security that gives precision, flexibility, ease of  automation, verification and validation. It will be supported by a suitable tool-chain that will facilitate technologies for trust and security to be implemented or integrated in large-scale systems. We will assess the framework by field trials.
