Active collaboration is undoubtedly one of the most important aspects within e-business.

This paper extends previous work on a tool aimed at supporting the cross-enterprise security negotiations process. Specifically, our goal in this article is to briefly present a case study analysis and evaluation of the usage of the tool. This provides further real-world insight into the practicality of the tool and the solution model which it embodies.
