From the Back Cover
Introducing the long-awaited first step to personal privacy on the Web!
Privacy on the Internet is a very complicated–and delicate–subject. It is about making sure that sites are honest with the people using their services, and providing the end user with the choice of whether or not to share information with the original server.

The Platform for Privacy Preferences Project (P3P), an emerging industry standards set developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), provides a simple way for users to gain more control over the use of personal information on the Web sites they visit. By using P3P to encode privacy policies in XML format, browsers can interpret whether a Web site meets an individual’s privacy standards and alert the user when a site does not.

Written by experts, this is the first book to show systems architects how to embed and design a Web site that is compliant with P3P. The authors provide detailed descriptions of the P3P standard and its parameters, as well as guidelines, explanations, and P3P how-to examples that you can follow. In addition to the detailed example of how to encode a Web site’s P3P policy with XML and a complete XML tutorial appendix, you’ll also learn valuable information such as:

Vulnerabilities and threats to Internet security
The lowdown on log files, cookies, spam, Web bugs, and tracking
P3P policies and policy reference files
P3P and the mobile Internet

With the current changes driven by the expansion of the World Wide Web, this book uses a different approach from other books on the market: it applies ontologies to electronically available information to improve the quality of knowledge management in large and distributed organizations. Ontologies are formal theories supporting knowledge sharing and reuse. They can be used to explicitly represent semantics of semi-structured information. These enable sophisticated automatic support for acquiring, maintaining and accessing information. Methodology and tools are developed for intelligent access to large volumes of semi-structured and textual information sources in intra- and extra-, and internet-based environments to employ the full power of ontologies in supporting knowledge management from the information client perspective and the information provider.
The aim of the book is to support efficient and effective knowledge management and focuses on weakly-structured online information sources. It is aimed primarily at researchers in the area of knowledge management and information retrieval and will also be a useful reference for students in computer science at the postgraduate level and for business managers who are aiming to increase the corporations’ information infrastructure.
