Enforcing access control over data streams
Barbara Carminati, Elena Ferrari, Kian‐Lee Tan · 2007
Access control is an important component of any computational system. However, it is only recently that mechanisms to guard against unauthorized access for streaming data have been proposed. In this paper, we study how to enforce the role-based access control model proposed by us in [5]. We design a set of novel secure operators, that basically filter out tuples/attributes from results of the corresponding (non-secure) operators that are not accessible according to the specified access control policies. We further develop an access control mechanism to enforce the access control policies based on these operators. We show that our method is secure according to the specified policies.
