ACStream: Enforcing Access Control over Data Streams
Jianneng Cao, Barbara Carminati, Elena Ferrari, Kian‐Lee Tan · Proceedings - International Conference on Data Engineering · 2009
In this demo proposal, we illustrate ACStream, a system built on top of Stream Base, to specify and enforce access control policies over data streams. ACStream supports a very flexible role-based access control model specifically designed to protect against unauthorized access to streaming data. The core component of ACStream is a query rewriting mechanism that, by exploiting a set of secure operators proposed by us in, rewrites a user query in such a way that it does not violate the specified access control policies during its execution. The demo will show how policies modelling a variety of access control requirements can be easily specified and enforced using ACStream.
