Secure Processes in Applications Workflow Facilitating Systems for On-line Exams
Sharil Tumin, Sylvia Encheva · 2009
Abstract: By employing basic security applications readily provided by well established cryptographic technolo-gies, workflows in a system for on-line students ’ assessments and on-line exams can be done securely. By ana-lyzing data flow between actors in the workflow, secure processes can be implemented using Web, database and cryptographic techniques. The goals of the implementation are to provide system users with data privacy, data authenticity and non-repudiation for different phases in the workflow depending on data sensitivity issues and policies. Key–Words: Student assessments, applications security, multi-tier Web-based application, workflow modeling. 1
