A SECURITY MODEL AND ARCHITECTURE FOR MULTICHANNEL SYSTEMS

This paper defines a service-oriented model and architecture for security in multichannel information systems, where services can be delivered on various channels adaptively, including mobile systems channels. The security model considers security as a Quality of Service (QoS) parameter, according to the definitions given in the MAIS Project. A security architecture is presented, based on the defined model, based on the definition of service delivery channel given in MAIS; the paper presents how the security architecture is framed in the MAIS system architecture.
