Design of a Privacy Taxonomy in Requirement Engineering

The Non Functional Requirement (NFR) plays crucial role in creating software, web applications. It is observed that privacy and security requirements are identified and implemented very late in the software development life cycle. One of the NFR -privacy requirements imposes new challenges in managing PII (Person identifiable information). This information need to be preserved from requirement engineering phase to implementation phase. This paper focuses on designing new taxonomy of privacy in Requirement Engineering. This novel taxonomy covers the major properties of privacy which are considered in developing any secured, web based, privacy-preserving apps.
