Polaris: Security Posture Analysis & Visualization Tool

Polaris offers anyone with a web browser to design and analyze the structural security posture of their system. Think of it as a Security Visualization tool for system designs.

Overview

In this section, you can learn more about what Polaris is and what is has to offer to help you with designing secure systems. We present a glossary and supporting references to understand the terminologies and concepts behind Polaris. We also answer some frequently asked questions (we will update this list as we get more!) and provide details on how you can contribute to the development of Polaris.

Theory Behind Polaris

In this section, we delve into the theory behind designing secure systems (called Structural Security Posture) with Polaris. We also present details on the metrics used to compute Structural Security Posture.

Using Polaris

In this section, we showcase the simplicity of navigating Polaris to perform a structural security posture analysis for a system. We also present a detailed example to illustrate the usefulness of Polaris in making security-oriented decisions as part of the system design process.
