Abstract: Software security is a key issue in the domain of software engineering which attracts attention from both the industry and academia. Besides, due to the massive investment in software development, security is in much demand. The selection of appropriate software development model is an increasingly challenging task. Security attributes play a vital role while designing security during software development. Each attribute has its importance during requirement elicitation procedure. This is based upon the user’s demand, organization resources, and sensitivity of the information. Hence, developers should understand the significance of each attribute while collecting the user requirements for developing software. In this paper, authors have proposed an approach for prioritization of these attributes using the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy AHP) method. A literature survey reveals that critical security attributes such as Integrity, confidentiality, Authentication, Effectiveness, Availability, Access Control and Authorization. This will help developers to improve software security for longer.
