چکیده

Cloud computing environments do not allow use of a single access control mechanism, single policy language or single policy management tool for various cloud services. Currently, users must use diverse access control solutions available for each cloud service provider to secure their data. Access control policies may be composed in incompatible ways because of diverse policy languages that are maintained separately at every cloud service provider. Heterogeneity and distribution of these policies pose problems in their administration. The semantic web technologies can provide the solution to interoperability of heterogeneous cloud service providers. In this paper, we introduce a semantic-based policy management framework that is designed to give users a unified control point for managing policies that control access to their data no matter where the data is stored. We present the framework and describe its components. Furthermore, we present a proof of concept implementation and results of performance evaluation.

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments

Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...

Assessment Methodology for Anomaly-Based Intrusion Detection in Cloud Computing

Cloud computing has become an attractive target for attackers as the mainstream technologies in the cloud, such as the virtualization and multitenancy, permit multiple users to utilize the same physical resource, thereby posing the so-called problem of internal facing security. Moreover, the traditional network-based intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are ineffective to be deployed in the cloud...
