Reasoning over Secure Business Processes

by Achim D. Brucker

Modern enterprise systems are often process-based, i.e., they allow for the direct execution of business processes that are specified in a high-level language such as BPMN.

We present an approach for validating the compliance of the business processes during design-time. Basically, while modeling a business process the business analyst specifies as well the security and compliance requirements the business process should comply to. By pressing a button, these requirements are validated and the results are presented in a graphical format to the business analysis. As proof-of-concept we created a prototype in which the SVaaS Server is deployed on the SAP NetWeaver Cloud and two SVaaS Connectors are built to enable two well-known BPMN tools, SAP NetWeaver BPM and Activiti, to consume SVaaS against industrial relevant business processes.
