The model can dynamically assign users to roles via rules to meet the need of growing numbers of users. These rules use different attribute expression and permission as a part of authorization constraints, and are defined by analyzing relations of resource attributes to user attributes in many access policies that are defined by the enterprise. The model is a general access control model, and can support many access control policies, and also can be used to wider application for service. The paper also describes how to use the GAR-RBAC model in Web service environments.展开更多

With the ever-increasing need for secure transaction, the need for systems that offer a wide variety of QoS (quality-of-service) features is also growing. In order to improve the QoS of PMI system, a cache based on RBAC (Role-based Access control) and trust is proposed. Our system is realized based on Web service. How to design the cache based on RBAC and trust in the access control model is deseribed in detail. The algorithm to query role permission in cache and to add records in cache is dealt with. The policy to update cache is introduced also.展开更多

The uniform ontology-based description mechanism of secure policies is applied in OntoRBAC, which can be used to describe different secure policies in distributed systems and integrate policies in semantic level with upper concepts. In addition, some rules have been defined to reason within the OntoRBAC to extend the inference algorithms in ontology, which makes the system accommodate itself to RBAC policies better.展开更多
