Safelayer has identified three main areas where semantic technologies can greatly help to solve the problems posed by current IT systems: i) information integration, ii) automatic inference or reasoning, and iii) service interoperability.
The use of semantic technologies and other intelligence methods opens new horizons in security and trust, a field in which the current solutions are provided in a restricted or customized basis for specific environments and problems that remain fixed and tied to pre-determined knowledge. The creation and use of expert systems based on ontologies capable of inferring beyond the predetermined is not a simple task. It is, however, a path Safelayer is committed to taking as the benefits promise to be far superior to those resulting from traditional systems.

FOAF and representing identity information |
|
|
The Friend of a Friend (FOAF) ontology is currently one of the most successful, accepted and popular Semantic Web projects. It offers a wide, standard vocabulary for representing people and organizations in a social context. Via the use of identity ontologies such as FOAF, it is possible to promote a paradigm shift and hand identity control over to the users.

Security and trust ontologies catalog |
|
|
Safelayer has opted for semantic technologies to improve processes for obtaining security and trust. Using semantic standards such as RDF and OWL, we can intelligently structure the information, although to do this we must first determine the ontologies to be used in our applications for modeling the concepts.
