Abstract: Providing Services at Home has become over the last
few years a very dynamic and promising technological domain. It is
likely to enable wide dissemination of secure and automated living
environments. We propose a methodology for identifying threats to
Services at Home Delivery systems, as well as a threat analysis
of a multi-provider Home Gateway architecture. This methodology
is based on a dichotomous positive/preventive study of the target
system: it aims at identifying both what the system must do, and
what it must not do. This approach completes existing methods with
a synthetic view of potential security flaws, thus enabling suitable
measures to be taken into account. Security implications of the
evolution of a given system become easier to deal with. A prototype
is built based on the conclusions of this analysis.
