Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for automated code generation using analysis of design diagrams are disclosed. A diagram-to-code system determines one or more security properties of a plurality of components associated with a software product. Relationships between the components are indicated in a software design diagram. At least some of the security properties are determined using input to a user interface. The diagram-to-code system generates one or more secure code packages based (at least in part) on the software design diagram and the one or more security properties. The secure code package(s) implement one or more security controls associated with the software product. The secure code package(s) are provided to a developer. The secure code package(s) and additional program code from the developer are compiled into a compiled software product. Execution of the compiled software product mitigates security vulnerabilities using the one or more security controls.
