Role-Based Access Control for CORBA Distributed Object Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper shows how role-based access control (RBAC) models can be implemented in distributed object-based systems that follow OMG/CORBA standards. We introduce a novel approach that provides for automatic role activation by the security components of the middleware, which brings role-based access control to security-unaware applications.

Role-based Security for Configurable Distributed Control Systems
The Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) is the most successful representative of an object-based distributed computing architecture. Although CORBA simplifies the implementation of complex, distributed systems significantly, the support of techniques for reliable, fault-tolerant, and secure software is very limited in the state-of-the-art CORBA. Extensions, such as the CORBAsec sp...
متن کاملRole-Based Purpose-Oriented Access Control for Distributed Systems
Various kinds of distributed applications have been developed by using object-oriented technologies. Object-oriented technologies like CORBA are widely used to realize the interoperability of the applications. Object-oriented systems are composed of multiple objects which cooperate to achieve some objectives by passing messages. In addition to realizing the interoperability, it is essential to ...
متن کاملA Resource Access Decision Service for CORBA-Based Distributed Systems
Decoupling authorization logic from application logic allows applications with fine-grain access control requirements to be independent from a particular access control policy and from factors that are used in authorization decisions as well as access control models, no matter how dynamic those polices and factors are. It also enables elaborate and consistent access control policies across hete...
متن کاملTowards an Access Control Policy Speciication Language for Corba
Specifying and managing access control policies for large distributed systems is a non{ trivial task. Commonly, access control policies are speciied in natural language and later reformulated in terms of a particular access control mechanism. Management of policies is thus done in terms of low{level constructs rather than in terms of the speciication. This paper presents and discusses concepts ...
متن کاملDistributed Systems Security
A distributed system is a set of autonomous units connected through some network. The most used distribution architectures are CORBA, DCOM, and RMI. CORBA is an architectural standard for interoperability of systems using different operating systems and languages. DCOM is Microsoft's distribution architecture for COM components. It only allows interoperation of Microsoft's systems. RMI (Remote ...
