Existing access controlmechanisms based on manual policy formulation by security experts suffer from drawbacks such as low policymanagement efficiency and difficulty in accurately describing the access control policy. To overcome theseproblems, this paper proposes a big data access control mechanism based on a two-layer permission decisionstructure. This mechanism extends the attribute-based access control (ABAC) model. Business attributes areintroduced in the ABAC model as business constraints between entities. The proposed mechanism implementsa two-layer permission decision structure composed of the inherent attributes of access control entities and thebusiness attributes, which constitute the general permission decision algorithm based on logical calculation andthe business permission decision algorithm based on a bi-directional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) neuralnetwork, respectively. The general permission decision algorithm is used to implement accurate policy decisions,while the business permission decision algorithm implements fuzzy decisions based on the business constraints.The BiLSTM neural network is used to calculate the similarity of the business attributes to realize intelligent,adaptive, and efficient access control permission decisions. Through the two-layer permission decision structure,the complex and diverse big data access control management requirements can be satisfied by considering thesecurity and availability of resources. Experimental results show that the proposed mechanism is effective andreliable. In summary, it can efficiently support the secure sharing of big data resources.展开更多

Then, both the unified identity authentication and the access control modules are designed according to those analyses. Finally, the unified identity authentication and the access control on the business level are implemented separately.

In the access control module, the functions of access controls are divided into different granularities to make the access control management more flexible. Moreover, the access control module has significant reference value for user management in similar systems.展开更多

They not only provide users with convenience, but also bring many security issues, such as data sharing and privacy issue. In this paper, we present an access control system with privilege separation based on privacy protection(PS-ACS). In the PS-ACS scheme, we divide users into private domain(PRD) and public domain(PUD) logically. In PRD, to achieve read access permission and write access permission, we adopt the Key-Aggregate Encryption(KAE) and the Improved Attribute-based Signature(IABS) respectively. In PUD, we construct a new multi-authority ciphertext policy attribute-based encryption(CP-ABE) scheme with efficient decryption to avoid the issues of single point of failure and complicated key distribution, and design an efficient attribute revocation method for it. The analysis and simulation result show that our scheme is feasible and superior to protect users' privacy in cloud-based services.展开更多

The mapping mechanism mainly involves the tree structure of CP-ABE and provides support for the types of attribute values. The framework and workflow of the model are described in detail. The effectiveness of the model is verified by building a simple prototype system, and the performance of the prototype system is analyzed. The results suggest that the proposed model is of theoretical and practical significance for access control research in MCSS. The CP-ABE has better performance in terms of computation time overhead than other models.展开更多

For a sustainable service, cloud computing services must control user access. The essential business characteristics of cloud computing are payment status and service level agreement. This work proposes a novel access control method for personal cloud service business. The proposed method sets metadata, policy analysis rules, and access denying rules. Metadata define the structure of access control policies and user requirements for cloud services. The policy analysis rules are used to compare conflicts and redundancies between access control policies. The access denying rules apply policies for inhibiting inappropriate access. The ontology is a theoretical foundation of this method. In this work, ontologies for payment status, access permission, service level, and the cloud provide semantic information needed to execute rules. A scenario of personal data backup cloud service is also provided in this work. This work potentially provides cloud service providers with a convenient method of controlling user access according to changeable business and marketing strategies.展开更多

Finally, the unified identity authentication and the access control on the business level are implemented separately. In the unified identity authentication module, based on an improved Kerberos-based authentication approach, a new control transfer method is proposed to solve the sharing problem of tickets among different servers of different departments. In the access control module, the functions of access controls are divided into different granularities to make the access control management more flexible. Moreover, the access control module has significant reference value for user management in similar systems.
文摘Access control is an important protection mechanism for information systems. This paper shows how to make access control in workflow system. We give a workflow access control model (WACM) based on several current access control models. The model supports roles assignment and dynamic authorization. The paper defines the workflow using Petri net. It firstly gives the definition and description of the workflow, and then analyzes the architecture of the workflow access control model (WACM). Finally, an example of an e-commerce workflow access control model is discussed in detail.

文摘Data privacy is important to the security of our society,and enabling authorized users to query this data efficiently is facing more challenge.Recently,blockchain has gained extensive attention with its prominent characteristics as public,distributed,decentration and chronological characteristics.However,the transaction information on the blockchain is open to all nodes,the transaction information update operation is even more transparent.And the leakage of transaction information will cause huge losses to the transaction party.In response to these problems,this paper combines hierarchical attribute encryption with linear secret sharing,and proposes a blockchain data privacy protection control scheme based on searchable attribute encryption,which solves the privacy exposure problem in traditional blockchain transactions.The user’s access control is implemented by the verification nodes,which avoids the security risks of submitting private keys and access structures to the blockchain network.Associating the private key component with the random identity of the user node in the blockchain can solve the collusion problem.In addition,authorized users can quickly search and supervise transaction information through searchable encryption.The improved algorithm ensures the security of keywords.Finally,based on the DBDH hypothesis,the security of the scheme is proved in the random prediction model.

文摘With the rapid development of computer technology, cloud-based services have become a hot topic. They not only provide users with convenience, but also bring many security issues, such as data sharing and privacy issue. In this paper, we present an access control system with privilege separation based on privacy protection(PS-ACS). In the PS-ACS scheme, we divide users into private domain(PRD) and public domain(PUD) logically. In PRD, to achieve read access permission and write access permission, we adopt the Key-Aggregate Encryption(KAE) and the Improved Attribute-based Signature(IABS) respectively. In PUD, we construct a new multi-authority ciphertext policy attribute-based encryption(CP-ABE) scheme with efficient decryption to avoid the issues of single point of failure and complicated key distribution, and design an efficient attribute revocation method for it. The analysis and simulation result show that our scheme is feasible and superior to protect users' privacy in cloud-based services.

文摘In order to solve the problems of data sharing security and policy conflict in multicloud storage systems(MCSS), this work designs an attribute mapping mechanism that extends ciphertext policy attribute-based encryption(CP-ABE), and proposes a multi-authority CP-ABE access control model that satisfies the need for multicloud storage access control. The mapping mechanism mainly involves the tree structure of CP-ABE and provides support for the types of attribute values. The framework and workflow of the model are described in detail. The effectiveness of the model is verified by building a simple prototype system, and the performance of the prototype system is analyzed. The results suggest that the proposed model is of theoretical and practical significance for access control research in MCSS. The CP-ABE has better performance in terms of computation time overhead than other models.
文摘Traditional multi-level security(MLS)systems have the defect of centralizing authorized facilities,which is difficult to meet the security requirements of modern distributed peer-to-peer network architecture.Blockchain is widely used in the field of access control with its decentralization,traceability and non-defective modification.Combining the blockchain technology and the Bell-LaPadula model,we propose a new access control model,named BCBLPM,for MLS environment.The“multi-chain”blockchain architecture is used for dividing resources into isolated access domains,providing a fine-grained data protection mechanism.The access control policies are implemented by smart contracts deployed in each access domain,so that the side chains of different access domains storage access records from outside and maintain the integrity of the records.Finally,we implement the BC-BLPM prototype system using the Hyperledger Fabric.The experimental and analytical results show that the model can adapt well to the needs of multi-level security environment,and it has the feasibility of application in actual scenarios.
文摘Weighted factor is given to access eontrol policies to express the importanceof policy and its effect on access control decision. According to this weighted access controlframework, a trustworthiness model for aceess request is also given. In this model, we give themeasure of trustworthiness factor to access request- by using some idea of uncertainty reasoning ofexpert system, present and prove the parallel propagation formula of request trustworthiness factoramong multiple policies, and get thefinal trustworthiness factor to decide whether authorizing. Inthis model, authorization decision is given according to the calculation of request trustworthinessfactor, which is more understandable, more suitable for real requirement and more powerfulforsecurity enhancement than traditional methods. Meanwhile the finer access control granularity isanother advantage.
文摘In the security and privacy fields,Access Control(AC)systems are viewed as the fundamental aspects of networking security mechanisms.Enforcing AC becomes even more challenging when researchers and data analysts have to analyze complex and distributed Big Data(BD)processing cluster frameworks,which are adopted to manage yottabyte of unstructured sensitive data.For instance,Big Data systems’privacy and security restrictions are most likely to failure due to the malformed AC policy configurations.Furthermore,BD systems were initially developed toped to take care of some of the DB issues to address BD challenges and many of these dealt with the“three Vs”(Velocity,Volume,and Variety)attributes,without planning security consideration,which are considered to be patch work.Some of the BD“three Vs”characteristics,such as distributed computing,fragment,redundant data and node-to node communication,each with its own security challenges,complicate even more the applicability of AC in BD.This paper gives an overview of the latest security and privacy challenges in BD AC systems.Furthermore,it analyzes and compares some of the latest AC research frameworks to reduce privacy and security issues in distributed BD systems,which very few enforce AC in a cost-effective and in a timely manner.Moreover,this work discusses some of the future research methodologies and improvements for BD AC systems.This study is valuable asset for Artificial Intelligence(AI)researchers,DB developers and DB analysts who need the latest AC security and privacy research perspective before using and/or improving a current BD AC framework.
文摘Personal cloud computing is an emerging trend in the computer industry. For a sustainable service, cloud computing services must control user access. The essential business characteristics of cloud computing are payment status and service level agreement. This work proposes a novel access control method for personal cloud service business. The proposed method sets metadata, policy analysis rules, and access denying rules. Metadata define the structure of access control policies and user requirements for cloud services. The policy analysis rules are used to compare conflicts and redundancies between access control policies. The access denying rules apply policies for inhibiting inappropriate access. The ontology is a theoretical foundation of this method. In this work, ontologies for payment status, access permission, service level, and the cloud provide semantic information needed to execute rules. A scenario of personal data backup cloud service is also provided in this work. This work potentially provides cloud service providers with a convenient method of controlling user access according to changeable business and marketing strategies.
