ProMSecCo
This page contains the ProMSecCo prototype. ProMSecCo has been developed to support semantic
process mining, in the context of PoSecCo, and is based on ProM6,
the de facto standard toolkit for process mining.
ProM6 provides functionality to handle large sets of execution data in the form of event logs and provides an
extensible framework through so-called packages. This way, functionality can easily be added, and existing
functionality can easily be reused by installing the relevant packages. Furthermore, it allows to distribute
packages under a different license than ProM6 itself, which is the Gnu Public License (GPL).
The main package developed in the context of PoSecCo is the PoSecCo package, which is distributed under
the Lesser Gnu Public License (L-GPL). Next to this main package, three other packages (Ontologies, Saxon,
and UML20) have been developed that support the PoSecCo package. These packages are distributed under
the L-GPL, Mozilla Public License (MPL), and Eclipse Public License (EPL). We use the name ProMSecCo
to refer to ProM6 extended with the PoSecCo package.
As ProM6 is a tool that mainly targets knowledge workers, it heavily depends on a graphical user interface.
Nevertheless, ProM6 also has a command-line interface, through which (limited) functionality is also available.
Please note that ProM6 is only an analysis tool, as a result it does not support the retrieval and storage
of event data itself but relies on other tools for this.
Within the context of this project, this deliverable proposes an architecture to automate parts of the tasks of
the knowledge worker, i.e. the auditor. The architecture comprises a component to retrieve system execution
data, a component to transform the system execution data into the appropriate event logs to validate
properties such as policies and security constraints, and a web service to be called from the PoSecCo tool.
