DYNAMIC CONTEXT-AWARE ACCESS CONTROL - Use of Resource Hierarchies to Define Fine-grained, Adaptable Authorization Policies

Annett Laube, Laurent Gomez

2007

Abstract

Complex access control rules often interfere with the business logic within applications. We show a solution based on strict separation of application and security logic that allows dynamic policy enforcement based on context-information as well as the adaptation of granularity outside the applications. The definition of resource hierarchies driven by application needs and related authorization policies make the granularity for the permissions flexible and adaptable without touching the applications themselves. The explicit notation of authorization policies and the enforcement independent from the application offer a new extensibility.
