OPBUS-*

OPBUS (OPtimization BUsiness process Security) is a framework composed of different tools for automated risk management in business processes. OPBUS is ready to use solvers for the automated analyses in business processes.

  • OPBUS-RAT a tool for the automatic risk assessment in business processes.
  • OPBUS-SPA a tool for the automatic selection of treatments of risk-aware business process.
  • OPBUS-MON a tool for the monitorization of risk-aware business process (coming soon).

Overview

OPBUS intends to integrate risk management into the Business Process Management (BPM) based on a Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) approach. The integration of BPM and risk management is aligned to the strategic objectives of ”Integration of RM/RA with Operation Processes”; and "1.4 Secure, dependable and trusted infrastructures” defined by the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) and European Commission 7th Framwork Programme (7FP) in the ICT Trust and Security.




OPBUS lifecycle


Goals

  • Business processes quality improvement.
  • Automatic generation of security-aware business processes solutions.


OPBUS-RAT

OPBUS-RAT tool strives the automatic risk assessment of business process models in order to determine which activities are non-conformance with regard to established risk levels.


IDE



Features

  • GMF-based plugin graphical editor with BPMN support.
  • Model validation in-line. Changes in validations are reflected on-the-fly in the editor.
  • Graphical annotation for risk evaluation.
  • Properties views to configure transformation and risk metrics.
  • Automatic transformation of models to constraint models. Changes in transformation templates are reflected on-the-fly in the editor.
  • Automatic evaluation of the models using constraint solvers. Easy integration with different CSP solvers in the market such as Comet, Choco or JaCOP.
