This contribution deals with problems related to an effort estimation of the software projects which are connected to the development of secured products. The aim of this contribution is to present an option of an effective consideration of the effort which is connected with the software products development. One of the well-known methods to estimate the size of software systems and software projects is Function Point Analysis (FPA). This method represents an important step towards the objectification of the time and workload estimations. The extent of an application as well as the workload of its development can be estimated by the FPA method. Function point analysis lacks an emphasis on security costing in developing software projects. There is a missing security factor among factors of technical and operational characteristics.
The paper is focused to an effort estimation of the software projects which are connected to the development of secured products. The aim of this contribution is to present an option of an effective consideration of the effort which is connected with the software products development.
