Welcome to
the Security Area of Networked Information Systems
The main focus of the security area is the application of
XML
Security Standards. Thus, within the project
XML
Security Services we developed security
services enforcing role based access control mechanisms in the
domain of biodiversity database providers. The project takes place in
coorperation with the
Botanic
Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin (BGBM) and is
funded by the projects
GBIF-D (BMBF) und
SYNTHESYS
(EU).
Beyond the
download
of the developed software components, an
demonstrator
is online to exemplify the results of this projects.
Furthermore, we work on security related aspects of the Semantic Web
like bindingness, reliability and trustworthiness. In context of a
doctoral thesis (workig title: "Reliable statements in the Semantic
Web") we research on solutions assuring these values to users within a
global semantic network. We published several
Publications
and Presentations
to this end.
