Scenario-aware access control model by Dibin SHAN, Xuehui DU, Wenjuan WANG, Na WANG, Aodi LIU

“…Dynamic access control model is the theoretical basis for constructing a dynamic access control system for big data.However, most existing access control models can only fulfill dynamic access control in a single scenario and are unable to adapt to access control in multiple types of dynamic scenarios.These scenarios include changes in the contextual environment of big data, changes in entity relationships, and changes in the state of objects.To address these issues, an analysis was conducted based on the research of existing access control models and the dynamic factors of big data.Subsequently, scenario-aware access control (SAAC) model was proposed, which was based on dynamic factor conversion and scenario unified modeling.All types of dynamic factors were converted into basic elements such as attributes and relationships.Then, scene information was incorporated to model the various types of constituent elements in a unified manner.A big data dynamic access control model was constructed based on scene information to support multi-type dynamic factors and extended dynamic factors.The working framework of the SAAC model was designed, and the SAAC rule learning algorithm and SAAC rule execution algorithm were proposed corresponding to the workflow of the framework.This enabled the automatic learning of access control rules and dynamic access control decision-making.The security of the proposed model was analyzed and verified by introducing the non-transitive non-interference theory.To validate the effectiveness of the access control policy mining method of the proposed model, experimental comparisons were conducted between the SAAC model and baseline models such as ABAC-L, PBAC-X, DTRM, and FB-CAAC using four datasets.The experimental results demonstrate that the SAAC model and its strategy mining method outperforms the baseline models in terms of metrics such as area under the curve AUC, monotonicity, and steepness of the ROC curve.This verification confirms that the proposed model can support multiple types of dynamic factors and dynamic factor extensions, and that the combined effect of the access control rules obtained from its mining algorithm is relatively high.…”

Research on IoT security situation awareness method based on evidence theory by Jian LI, Tinglu DONG, Jie LI

“…The security problem of IoT became more and more serious with its rapid development.Considering that the current IoT security situation awareness system lacks generality and excessively relies on expert knowledge, a IoT security situation awareness method based on improved D-S evidence theory was proposed in this paper.Fuzzy Gaussian membership function was used to calculate the vulnerability information membership matrix, which was normalized as evidence distribution matrix.The improved Topsis method was used to measure the evidence credibility.In order to fully restrain the credibility of conflicting evidence and improve the credibility of mutually supporting evidence, local credibility between two evidence was aggregated and the expected positive and negative solution vectors were improved according to the situation assessment scenario.And the weighted average method was used for vulnerability information fusion, to obtain the result of situational assessment.The result of situational awareness was fused with the time discount and high-risk vulnerability information discount evidence theory.At the same time, the IoT vulnerability information at different moments was considered comprehensively, the evidence was adaptively and dynamically weighted with the ratio information of high-risk vulnerability.The experimental results show that in the fusion of different numbers of evidence bodies and four common conflicting evidence, the improved Topsis method has higher fusion probability on credible proposition.In the aspect of situation assessment, the risk degree of current system is accurately assessed.And in the aspect of situational awareness, this discount evidence theory can predict the probability of high risk and critical risk, which is more effective than the traditional D-S evidence theory.According to this theory, a IoT security situational awareness method process was proposed, which would be used to guide engineering practice.In the future, the relationship between vulnerabilities can be considered and richer information between vulnerabilities can be extracted for vulnerability exploiting, so that the result of situation assessment is more accurate and reasonable.On the other hand, for situational awareness, game theory can be adopted in the process of dynamic game between the attacker and defender.…”
