Design and Implementation of New Data Validation Service (NDVS) Using Semantic Web Technologies in Web Applications
Shadi A Aljawarneh, Faisal Qaseem Alkhateeb · 2009
Abstract—We have designed a novel server-side data validation service, based upon semantic web technologies to solve the lack of data validation and bypassing validation issues. The NDVS consists of five components: RDFa annotation for elements of web pages, interceptor, RDFa extractor, RDF parser, and data validator. Our solution is implemented as a prototype. In this paper, we have conducted a pilot study to prevent the security vulnerabilities at the application level such as SQL injections. The results of this initial study have shown that the proposed service (NDVS) could provide a high coverage of prevention of security vulnerabilities.
