After submitting the request, the Quantitative Security Assessment (QSA) service in invoked and the selected project is analyzed with respect to its Security. In brief, QSA selects the Security Assessment Model for Java, performs static analysis, and aggregates the results according to the model, in order to compute a set of Security Metrics, as well as the overall *Security Index* of the selected project (for more information about the *Security Assessment Model* we refer the reader to the materials that are listed in the References section of the [Dependability Toolbox Description](dependability-toolbox-description) wiki page. After the successful execution of the analysis, a JSON report with the results is produced and sent as a response to the user. The produced JSON for the *HelloWorldCompiled* project is presented below.
