During the second reporting period (month 13 to month 24), two milestones have been successfully achieved. The second project phase – the actual development phase – includes the iterative implementation of the main pillars of the BPR4GDPR solution, namely the policy framework (WP3), the privacy-aware process engineering (WP4), and the compliance toolkit (WP5). With the achievement of milestone 4 (M18), the first iteration of the development phase has finished with the release of fully working prototypes.
In parallel, assessment, trials and validation (WP6) are progressing in the frame of the third project phase, the validation phase. Here the BPR4GDPR solutions are deployed, operated and validated within production environments, being under continuous assessment as regards regulatory compliance and other important aspects. Work in this reporting period includes regulatory and framework assessment, as well as further refinement of the trial cases and definition of KPIs.
Horizontal work includes project management (WP1) and dissemination, standardisation and exploitation activities (WP7), with a view to achieving active presence, raising awareness, and paving the way for industrial impact creation.
The achieved milestones are described below. For more details please refer to the public deliverables of the project.
MS6 Refined architecture definition (M26)
MS7 Final Prototypes of BPR4GDPR technology (M31)
MS8 Trial demonstration of the achievements '(M36)
Moreover, we have finalized the following prototypes:
• Compliance ontology
• Rule-based access and usage control
• Reasoning and knowledge extraction
• Compliance metamodel
• Process verification and transformation
• Process discovery and continuous adaptation
• Privacy enhancement tools
• Data Management Bus
• User centred tools
In addition, we have produced deployment guidelines, as a basis for further adoptions (deliverable D6.4)
The above tools have been integrated and deployed in the three pilots. Specific workshops were performed demonstrating the tools and their usage.
Impact creation activities: The project continued with dissemination and standardization activities. For exploitation main effort was put on the definition of the MVP of each exploitable asset and group of assets (feature sets). Furthermore, the consortium did a thorough analysis of the business perspectives, including market, competition and pricing, of each asset.
