Open access journalInformation system business is currently witnessing an increasing demand for system conformance with the international regime of GRC Governance, Risk and Compliance. Among different compliance approaches, data protection and privacy laws plays a key role. In this paper, we propose a compliance requirement analysis method from early stages of system modelling based on a semantically-rich model, where a mapping can be established from data protection and privacy requirements defined by laws and regulations to system business goals and contexts. The early consideration of requirements satisfies Privacy by Design, a key concept in General Data Protection Regulation 2012. The proposed semantic model consists of a number of ontologies each corresponding to a knowledge component within the developed framework of our approach. Each ontology is a thesaurus of concepts in the compliance related to system along with relationships and rules between these concepts that encompass the domain knowledge. The main contribution of the work presented in this paper is the ontology-based compliance framework that demonstrates how description-logic reasoning techniques can be used to simulate legal reasoning requirements employed by legal professions against the description of each ontology

In this paper, we propose a compliance requirement analysis method for early stages of software development based on a semantically-rich model, where a mapping can be established from legal and regulatory requirements relevant to system context to software system business goals and contexts. The proposed semantic model consists of a number of ontologies each corresponding to a knowledge component within the developed framework of our approach.

    A szemantikus folyamatmenedzsment hasznosítási lehetősége az üzleti folyamatok tudásalapú fejlesztésében

    Kutatásomban a folyamatmenedzsment és a tudásmenedzsment területeit kapcsolom össze, célom ugyanis a folyamatmodellekből indulva feltárni a munkakörök betöltéséhez szükséges tudáselemeket, illetve ezek kinyerésének módszereit, majd ezekből ontológia építésével a tudástranszfer megvalósításához konkrét megoldást adni. A kutatás célja olyan informatikai és tudásmenedzsment eszköz kialakítása, amely képes a szervezeti tudásvagyont a szervezet folyamatait leképező folyamatmodellekből kinyerni, azt ontológiába leképezni, majd ezt a humán szereplők és az eredeti folyamat fejlesztésére hasznosítani. A fejlesztés alapja a folyamat referenciafolyamatokkal, best practice-ekkel való összehasonlítása, kiemelt fontosságot adva a feltárt tudáselemeknek és kompetenciáknak. A folyamatmodellek fejlesztése így nem csak a tradicionális BPR vagy CPI alapokon valósul meg, hiszen a klasszikus elvek kiegészülnek egy tudásalapú összehasonlítás fejlesztésre használható eredményével is.

    Um betriebliche Abläufe bei einem IT-Dienstleister flexibel zu automatisieren ist die Unterstützung durch spezielle Informationssysteme erforderlich. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, den Entwurf dieser Informationssysteme vom Blickpunkt der strukturierten Softwareentwicklung zu betrachten, wobei verschiedene Kriterien (Prozessorientierung, Standardisierung und Wiederverwendbarkeit) hinsichtlich der einzelnen Systemkomponenten im Kern der Betrachtungen stehen

    A semantic based framework for software regulatory compliance

    Software development market is currently witnessing an increasing demand for software applications conformance with the international regime of GRC for Governance, Risk and Compliance. In this thesis, we propose a compliance requirement analysis method for early stages of software development based on a semantically-rich model, where a mapping can be established from legal and regulatory requirements relevant to system context to software system goals and contexts. This research is an attempt to address the requirement of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, Article 25) (European Commission) for implementation of a "privacy by design” approach as part of organizational IT-systems and processes. It requires design of data protection requirements in the development of business processes for products and services. The proposed semantic model consists of a number of ontologies each corresponding to a knowledge component within the developed framework of our approach. Each ontology is a thesaurus of concepts in the compliance and risk assessment domain related to system development along with relationships and rules between concepts that compromise the domain knowledge. The main contribution of the work presented in this paper is a novel ontology-based framework that demonstrates how description-logic reasoning techniques can be used to simulate legal reasoning requirements employed by legal professions against the description of each ontology. The semantic modelling of each component of framework can highly influence the compliance of developing software system and enables the reusability, adaptability and maintainability of these components. Through the discrete modelling of these components, the flexibility and extensibility of compliance systems will be improved. Additionally, enriching ontologies with semantic rules increases the reasoning power and helps to represent rules of laws, regulations and guidelines for compliance, also mapping, refinement and inheriting of different components from each other. This novel approach offers a pedagogically effective and satisfactory learning experience for developers and compliance officers to be trained in area of compliance and query for knowledge in this domain. This thesis offers the theoretical models, design and implementation of a compliance system in accordance with this approach

    Ontology-based representation of compliance requirements for service processes

    No full text
    Service processes are becoming increasingly essential in modern economies as traditional, production-oriented industries decline. When comparing service processes to standard business processes, a major distinction is that the\ud quality of their result, i.e., the service produced, cannot be measured in advance. Therefore, the compliance of the service process with quality standards plays an important role in convincing the customer that the services rendered will result in the quality specified. However, the check for compliance is still a tedious task. To address this situation, an ontology-based approach for representing service processes and checking their compliance is proposed. It is based on two ontologies: one to represent the service processes and the other to store the\ud compliance requirements. The process representation ontology uses three so-called views to appropriately represent the service processes. The ontology for storing the compliance requirements differentiates syntactic, semantic and pragmatic requirements
