Event logs recorded during the execution of business processes constitute a valuable source of information. Applying process mining techniques to them, event logs may reveal the actual process execution and enable reasoning on quantitative…
Distributed ledger technology offers numerous desirable attributes to applications in the enterprise context. However, with distributed data and decentralized computation on a shared platform, privacy and confidentiality challenges arise.…
Privacy-preservation for sensitive data has become a challenging issue in cloud computing. Threat modeling as a part of requirements engineering in secure software development provides a structured approach for identifying attacks and…
Given several databases containing person-specific data held by different organizations, Privacy-Preserving Record Linkage (PPRL) aims to identify and link records that correspond to the same entity/individual across different databases…
The analysis of fairness in process mining is a significant aspect of data-driven decision-making, yet the advancement in this field is constrained due to the scarcity of event data that incorporates fairness considerations. To bridge this…
The strong impulse to digitize processes and operations in companies and enterprises have resulted in the creation and automatic recording of an increasingly large amount of process data in information systems. These are made available in…
Private record linkage (PRL) is the problem of identifying pairs of records that are similar as per an input matching rule from databases held by two parties that do not trust one another. We identify three key desiderata that a PRL…
This paper studies privacy in the context of complex decision support queries composed of multiple conditions on different aggregate statistics combined using disjunction and conjunction operators. Utility requirements for such queries…
Process performance indicators (PPIs) are metrics to quantify the degree with which organizational goals defined based on business processes are fulfilled. They exploit the event logs recorded by information systems during the execution of…
Unlike other industries in which intellectual property is patentable, the financial industry relies on trade secrecy to protect its business processes and methods, which can obscure critical financial risk exposures from regulators and the…
Digital and physical footprints are a trail of user activities collected over the use of software applications and systems. As software becomes ubiquitous, protecting user privacy has become challenging. With the increase of user privacy…
For privacy concerns to be addressed adequately in current machine learning systems, the knowledge gap between the machine learning and privacy communities must be bridged. This article aims to provide an introduction to the intersection of…
Process mining techniques enable organizations to gain insights into their business processes through the analysis of execution records (event logs) stored by information systems. While most process mining efforts focus on…
Software systems are ubiquitous, and their use is ingrained in our everyday lives. They enable us to get in touch with people quickly and easily, support us in gathering information, and help us perform our daily tasks. In return, we…
