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

This paper analyzes the relationships of resource attributes to user attributes based on access policies for Web services, and proposes a general attribute based role-based access control（GARBAC） model. The model introduces the notions of single attribute expression, composite attribute expression, and composition permission, defines a set of elements and relations among its elements and makes a set of rules, assigns roles to user by inputing user＇s attributes values. The model is a general access control model, can support more granularity resource information and rich access control policies, also can be used to wider application for services. The paper also describes how to use the GARBAC model in Web services environments.展开更多
