What is necessary to track down manipulations to (financial) applications? How can regulatory compliance be audited and monitored in a cost-sensitive yet effective way? Dr. Boehmer has worked on a model for automated monitoring of the fulfillment of legal, institutional, and organizational requirements, which he calls "compliance analysis". In contrast to classic methods used for safeguarding corporate networks, which can primarily be described using first order logic calculus, e.g. through signatures or patterns and rule systems, methods used by knowledge-based systems (data mining) are more advisable in the case of compliance analysis. Boehmer´s model is borrowed from criminology and is referred to as compliance profiling.
