R&D Projects

My current R&D focus and interest is on Security Analytics, IT Risk Management and Identity Management.

In terms of Identity Management, my R&D work is on enterprise and federated contexts. My vision and goal is to automate and improve identity and privacy management processes within enterprises by keeping into account the current situation (e.g. current state-of-the-art enterprise identity management solutions) and emerging trends, including an increasing need for accountability, better compliance (to laws and legislation) and governance, cost reduction and fulfilment of end-users' expectations and needs. Policies and Policy Management have a important role in shaping and driving solutions in this space. Part of my R&D work has focused on related policy management aspects.

New trends (I am interested in) also includes an increased adoption of Web 2.0 technologies by enterprise employees and business groups which brings a shift towards enterprise-based social networks, collaborative environments, collective intelligence. These trends are going to be reinforced  by the future adoption of related "Web 2.0" technologies and approaches also by "IT & Support groups" within enterprise. I am currently exploring opportunities and the impact of these trends on Enterprise Web 2.0 (Enterprise 2.0).
