Software is at core of most of the business transactions, and it pervades all the facets of our lives: as a result almost every application has some kind of security requirement even if its use is not to be considered critical. Thus, nowadays designers have to cope with the complexity of insecure operating environments by considering threats to their application correctness. Security concerns should be taken into account as early as possible, and not added to systems as an after-thought. On the other hand, several well-established software engineering disciplines could contribute to improving security solutions that sometimes lack a coherent methodological approach. The SESS workshop aims at providing a venue for software engineers and security researchers to exchange ideas and techniques.
