چکیده

Security of dynamic web applications is a serious issue. While Model Driven Architecture (MDA) techniques can be used to generate applications with given access control security properties, analysis of existing web applications is more problematic. In this paper we present a model transformation technique to automatically construct a role-based access control (RBAC) security model of dynamic web applications from previously recovered structural and behavioral models. The SecureUML model generated by this technique can be used to check for security properties of the original application. We demonstrate our approach by constructing an RBAC security model of PhpBB, a popular internet bulletin board system.

A context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments

Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
