Knowledge Management (KM) comprises of a variety of distinct
technologies and techniques, relative to the uniform treatment of tangible and
intangible resources. Attempts to extend the traditional single organizational
resource-sharing scheme, confront various challenges, relative to the
management of security and heterogeneity issues. In this paper we discuss the
various security models, presenting potential limitations - as well as the
advantages - relative to their support to extend the single-domain security
management framework, to a resilient and robust distributed multi-domain
Knowledge Management scheme. We present the architecture of a security
enhanced prototype that supports decentralization, while it maintains the
autonomic character of the participating domains. We also argue about the
implementation dependent choices relative to the alleviation of the multifaceted
problems that a collaborative Inter-organizational knowledge asset exchange
framework arises.
