Abstract:
This paper presents the basics of a new paradigm that allows generators and consumers
of global contextual information to determine an appropriate security level that the
contextual information should have. Security levels have a direct correlation with
confidence in the integrity of contextual data and thus their processing.
The new approach is based on the concept of branes, which can be used to map
different security levels of a collection of data points in some space.
It turns out that different branes offer different classification capabilities and
computational challenges. The data are described according to their information context
and also to their security requirements. Because the internet inherently does not have
good security, the creation of this model has necessitated the development of new methods
for securing contextual information as it migrates around the web.
Key Words:
Global contextual processing, contextual processing security, security branes.
