-====== PLEAK ====== 
  
-The PLEAK tool is designed to support the analysis of private data flows in enterprise business pro- 
-cesses (BP) and programs. PLEAK can be used by BP analysts, developers and maintainers in order to 
-understand the privacy implications of the business processes used or planned by their organizations or 
-customers. 
- 
-PLEAK will improve the general state of the art of privacy by simplifying the risk analysis and 
-impact assessment of privacy leak in today’s systems. Most IT architects or analysts are not experts in 
-information security and cannot judge the technical risks related to using security technologies. PLEAK 
-provides them with a tool that they can use to describe their system by its private data elements, stake- 
-holders, business processes and, optionally, data analysis algorithms. Once this is done, PLEAK will 
-show how private data flows through a system, who does it leak to and to what extent does it leak. This 
-will significantly expand the number of people who can argue that a system is built with insufficient 
-privacy. 
- 
-Furthermore,​ PLEAK will provide a library of Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) that can be 
-included in the models. Once the models contain the PETs, PLEAK’s analysis will take that into account 
-and show reduced leakage accordingly. As every security technology has assumptions under which they 
-work in, PLEAK will also collect these assumptions and present them so they can be validated. 
-In addition to a cryptographic privacy analysis, PLEAK will also provide a differentially private 
-analysis that will be more granular in analyzing the leakage of private data to possibly unauthorized par- 
-ties. Furthermore,​ the NAPLES project will also strive towards the synthesis of better business processes 
-by suggesting PETs. 
- 
-A critical sub-goal of PLEAK is to be usable to a wide range of users. Thus, PLEAK is built on 
-popular tools such as the BPMN (Business Process Model Notation) language. BPMN is popular among 
-process and systems analysts and by extending it, we will immediately target a much wider range of users 
-than we could address by building a custom language.
