Abstract

The paper examines the security of open source software from

three different perspectives. First, we investigate how development

processes affect security. Several open source software

development models are described, and the meaning of openness

and importance of testing are analyzed. Next, we move on to

explore the economic impact and interests of security. Monetary

value of security and the incentives behind various open source

communities are discussed. Finally, we take a look at the effects of

government policy on open source security. We describe the

policies in the United States, Germany and China, and examine

how different roles of the government impact security of open

source software.
