The research group in "Pattern Recognition and Applications" at the Dept. of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (DIEE) of the University of Cagliari (Italy) and Tzente, jAPS 2.0 official maintainer, today announced a strategic partnership aimed enforcing the security of jAPS 2.0 web-based application. The group at DIEE will carry out the analysis of jAPS implementations according to the protocols defined by OWASP.

In addition, DIEE also offers the development of advance monitoring tools for the early detection of intrusion attempts. jAPS 2.0 Platform is developed according to the software engineering best practices: this allows to simplify and facilitate the security level evaluation process. Moreover, the platform modularity facilitates the introduction of security mechanisms needed to achieve the more appropriate OWASP level. The partnership provides to Enterprises and Governments, an innovative platform portal with high performance, secure, reliable and suitable in mission critical environments.
