Abstract: A number of the industrial partners of the IFIP WG 10.4 Dependability Benchmarking SIG (SIGDeB) have identified a set of standardized classes for characterizing the dependability of computer systems. The proposed classification system seeks to enable comparison of different computer systems in the dimensions of availability, data integrity, disaster recovery, and security. Different sets of criteria are proposed for computer systems that are used for different application types, e.g. transaction processing, process control, etc. This paper describes the classification system, and gives a progress report on the work to fill in the details of the classification criteria
