Abstract
This article introduces foundational components for decentralized B2B data sharing based on the solid protocol, emphasizing data sovereignty, security, and interoperability. These components are: (1) Authorization app (AuthApp) – facilitating granular control and compliance in access granting and revocation processes; (2) rights delegation proxy (RDP) – supporting controlled delegation of rights, enabling natural persons to act on behalf of organizations while ensuring privacy and traceability; (3) data provisioning proxy (DPP) – allowing seamless and secure data provisioning across organizations while masking the identity of upstream data sources to protect business interests. The components enable the creation of end-to-end, standards-based, flexible data value chains. We validate their applicability through a real-world financial services use case involving loan processing, which illustrates data sharing and protection challenges in B2B ecosystems.
期刊介绍:
The World Wide Web and its associated technologies have become a major implementation and delivery platform for a large variety of applications, ranging from simple institutional information Web sites to sophisticated supply-chain management systems, financial applications, e-government, distance learning, and entertainment, among others. Such applications, in addition to their intrinsic functionality, also exhibit the more complex behavior of distributed applications.
