This page presents ideas and possible research projects. Reflection on
the ideas presented here is welcome here
- The Need for the Establishment of National IT
Security Body for the Development and Maintenance of Critical Infrastructures
- Generic Security Architecture. Could it
be realized in Middleware?
- Risk Analysis,

Risk:"The revolutionary idea that defines the boundary between modern times and the past is the mastery of risk: the notion that the future is more than a whim of the gods and that men and women are not passive before nature." - Peter L. Bernstein, Against the gods, 1996
- Intention Capturing: As noted elsewhere,
"... biometrics security vendors are back in the spotlight, promising
to detect intruders by the whorls of their fingerprints, the sound of
their voice or even subtle differences in how they hunt-and-peck on
the keyboard", isn't it also high time to research on models that can
capture the intent of a subject?
For instance, is it possible to
determine if somebody is loitering with intent? - Trust Delegation/Management and Security
Policy related ideas
"Trust is a social good to be protected just as much as the air we
breathe or the water we drink. When it is damaged, the community as a
whole suffers; and when it is destroyed, societies falter and
collapse" - by Sissela Bok, "Lying: Moral Choice in Public and
Private Life", New York, Patheon Books, 1978
- A Formal and an Automated Model of Security Lifecycle!
- Privacy quote from
Computer
Privacy:
"An authorized person accessing private data records
for an illegitimate purpose is as dangerous and wrong as a stranger
doing the same thing!"
