Abstract

This paper shows that rule-based web security systems, such as firewalls, can be largely improved by using formal design and verification techniques. The principal idea consists of an integrated design and verification methodology, supported by an integrated graphical environment for rule-based systems development. System structure is described in a XML-based meta-level knowledge representation language. System domain knowledge and semantics is represented in RDF and Ontologies-based description. Formal properties of the system can be verified on-line by an integrated Prolog-based inference engine.
