An Open-Source Proactive Security Infrastructure For Business Process Management

Business Process Management Systems (BPMS) have emerged in the IT arena as cornerstone in the automation and orchestration of complex services for organizations. These systems manage critical information that is crucial for the organizations. The potential cost and consequences of security threats could produce information loss for the reputation of organizations. Therefore, the early response regarding to the non-compliance of security requirement is a real necessity overall during the business process execution. Currently, an active response requires a human intervention with high know-how and expertise in both business process management and security. In this paper, we propose an initial work which presents an open-source proactive infrastructure for the automatic continuous monitoring and checking compliance of security requirements at runtime of business processes.
