Dynamic Access Control Administration for Collaborative Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Today’s web-based collaborative applications need new approaches to overcome the shortcomings of classical access control. The limitations on administrative aspects of the existing security models and the requirements for more efficient management of authorizations in order to provide fine-grained and just-in-time access control for collaborative applications are discussed in this paper. The proposed DARBAC (Dynamically Administering Role Based Access Control) model provides a new approach for the administration of access control in such environments, where often the security breaks. The DARBAC model provides fine-grained and dynamic administration of authorizations in RBAC-based access control for a wide-range of collaborative applications, usually set-up in Web-based environments. An experimental implementation of the DARBAC model confirmed a number of benefits related to the administration of RBAC in collaborative environments. Key-Words: Access control, meta access, RBAC, DARBAC

A Paradigm for Dynamic and Decentralized Administration of Access Control in Workflow Applications
The administration of authorizations in modem Web-based computing environments has become a primary concern. Application security is characterized by a significant complexity, due to the large number of variations and combinations of objects and operations to be protected. Thus, there is a need for data, processes and context parameters, like time and location, to be combined into a security mo...

متن کاملCollaborative Information Seeking Behavior: Concepts and Theories
Background and Aim: Collaborative information seeking is an interaction among members of a group who purposefully try to access and share joint information. Although collaboration is a key component of information seeking behavior, but most of the studies in this area are focused on individual information seeking behavior and collaborative aspects are considered much less. As a result, there is...

Peer to peer collaborative groups are becoming increasingly popular for collaborative applications like video/audio conferencing, IP telephony, file sharing, collaborative work spaces, and multi-user games. The decentralized nature of these groups gives rise to the need of a secure group layer which integrates authentication, admission control, authorization, access control and key management. ...
