The health care system revolutionized by the use of information and communication technologies. Computer information processing and electronic communication technologies play an increasingly important role in the area of health care. We propose a new role based access control model for pervasive health care systems, which changed location, time, environment information. Also our model can be solved the occurrence of an reduction authority problem to pervasive health care system at emergency environment. We propose a new role based access control model for pervasive health care systems, which combines role-to-role delegations, negative permission, context concept and dynamic context aware access control. With out approach we aim to preserver the advantages of RBAC and offer groat flexibility and fine-grained access control in pervasive healthcare information systems.

To conform to new emerging computing paradigm, various researches and challenges are being done. New information technologies make easy to access and acquire information in various ways. In other side, however, it also makes illegal access more powerful and various threat to system security. In this paper, we suggest a new extended access control method that make it possible to conform to security policies enforcement even with discrepancy between policy based constraints rules and query based constraints rules, based on their semantic information. New method is to derive security policy rules using context tree structure and to control the exceed granting of privileges through the degree of the semantic discrepancy. In addition, we illustrate prototype system architecture and make performance comparison with existing access control methods.

Activating appropriate roles for a session in the role-based access control (RBAC) model has become challenging because of the so-called role explosion. In this paper, factors and issues related to user-driven role management are analysed, and a session role activation (SRA) problem based on reasonable assumptions is proposed to describe the problem of such role management. To solve the SRA problem, we propose an extended RBAC model with context-based role filtering. When a session is created, context conditions are used to filter roles that do not need to be activated for the session. This significantly reduces the candidate roles that need to be reviewed by the user, and aids the user in rapidly activating the appropriate roles. Simulations are carried out, and the results show that the extended RBAC model is effective in filtering the roles that are unnecessary for a session by using predefined context conditions. The extended RBAC model is also implemented in the Apache Shiro framework, and the modifications to Shiro are described in detail.

As the ubiquitous technology has penetrated into almost every aspect of modern life, the research of the security technology to solve the weakness of security in the ubiquitous environment is received much attention. Because, however, today's security systems are usually based on the fixed rules, many security systems can not handle diverse situations in the ubiquitous environment appropriately. Although many existing researches on context aware security service are based on ACL (Access Control List) or RBAC (Role Based Access Control), they have an overhead in the management of security policy and can not manipulate unexpected situations. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a context-aware security service providing multiple authentications and authorization from a security level which is decided dynamically in a context-aware environment using FCM (Fuzzy C-Means) clustering algorithm and Fuzzy Decision Tree. We show proposed model can solve typical conflict problems of RBAC system due to the fixed rules and improve overhead problem in the security policy management. We expect to apply the proposed model to the various applications using contextual information of the user such as healthcare system, rescue systems, and so on.

In the paper, we proposed an IM-ACM(Insider Misuse-Access Control Model) for preventing illegal information leakage by insider who exploits his legal rights in the ubiquitous computing environment. The IM-ACM can monitor whether insider uses data rightly using misuse monitor add to CA-TRBAC(Context Aware-Task Role Based Access Control) which permits access authorization according to user role, context role, task and entity's security attributes. It is difficult to prevent information leakage by insider because of access to legal rights, a wealth of knowledge about the system. The IM-ACM can prevent the information flow between objects which have the different security levels using context role and security attributes and prevent an insider misuse by misuse monitor which comparing an insider actual processing behavior to an insider possible work process pattern drawing on the current defined profile of insider's process.

Many security issues occur in cloud computing service environment such as authentication, access control, and so on. In this paper, we propose an effective authentication and access control model which provide integrated management and control when we access various resources in cloud computing environment. To address these problems, we suggest a context-aware single sign-on and access control system using context-awareness, integrated authentication, access control, and OSGi service platform in cloud computing environment. And we show design and implementation of context-aware single sign-on and access control system. Also we verified the flexibility and convenience of the proposed system through multi fact based integrated authentication in cloud computing environment. We could provide flexible and secure seamless security service by user context in cloud computing environment.

Privacy enforcement has been one of the most important problems in IT area. Privacy protection can be achieved by enforcing privacy policies within an organization's data processing systems. Traditional security models are more or less inappropriate for enforcing basic privacy requirements, such as privacy binding. This paper proposes an extended role-based access control (RBAC) model for enforcing privacy policies within an organization. For providing privacy protection and context based access control, this model combines RBAC, Domain-Type Enforcement, and privacy policies Privacy policies are to assign privacy levels to user roles according to their tasks and to assign data privacy levels to data according to consented consumer privacy preferences recorded as data usage policies. For application of this model, small hospital model is considered.

In the large-scale infrastructure of cloud environment, illegal access rights are frequently caused by sharing applications and devices, so in order to actively respond to such attacks, a strengthened access control system is required to prepare for each situation. We proposed an entity attribute-based access control(EABAC) model based on security level and relation concept. This model has enhanced access control characteristics that give integrity and confidentiality to subjects and objects, and can provide different services to the same role. It has flexibility in authority management by assigning roles and rights to contexts, which are relations and context related to services. In addition, we have shown application cases of this model in multi service environment such as university.

Context-based access control is an emerging approach for modeling adaptive solution, making access control management more flexible and powerful. However, these strategies are inadequate for the increased flexibility and performance that ubiquitous computing environment requires because such systems can not utilize effectively all benefit from this environment. In this paper, we propose a solution based on risk to make use of many context parameters in order to provide good decisions for a safety environment. We design a new model for risk assessment in ubiquitous computing environment and use risk as a key component in decision-making process in our access control model.

In traditional approach, enterprise-wide consistent security policy enforcement for applications is very difficult task. Therefore, industry is now moving towards new unified enterprise application security concept that consist of centralized authentication and authorization mechanism. The eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML); an XML-based standard defined by OASIS, is most suitable choice which can support centralized, role based, context aware access control mechanism. It is designed to provide universal standard for writing authorization policies and access control request/response language for managing access to the resources. This paper includes a brief overview on XACML and discusses its benefits, limitations and a data flow process. We propose a new generic access control architecture that supports enterprise wide centralized application level access control mechanism using XACML. The other benefits which can be achieved through this architecture are, reduce adnministration cost and complexity, support of heterogeneous computing platforms, centralized monitoring system, automatic fail over, scalability and availability, open standard based solution and secure communication.
