  • The primary purpose of security mechanisms in a computer systems is to control the access to information. There are two types of access control mechanisms to be used typically. One is discretionary access control(DAC) and another is mandatory access control(MAC). In this study an access control mechanism is introduced for secure access path in security system. The security policy of this access control is that no disclosure of information and no unauthorized modification of information. To make this access control correspond to security policy, we introduce three properties; read, write and create.

  • In the paper, we designed a context aware task-role based access control system(CAT-RACS) which can control access and prevent illegal access efficiently for various information systems in ubiquitous computing environment. CAT-RACS applied CA-TRBAC, which adds context-role concept for achieve policy composition by context information and security level attribute to be kept confidentiality of information. CA-TRBAC doesn't permit access when context isn't coincident with access control conditions, or role and task's security level aren't accord with object's security level or their level is a lower level, even if user's role and task are coincident with access control conditions. It provides security services of user authentication and access control, etc. by a context-aware security manager, and provides context-aware security services and manages context information needed in security policy configuration by a context information fusion manager. Also, it manages CA-TRBAC policy, user authentication policy, and security domain management policy by a security policy manager.

  • SELinux, security operating system, is the security system which implements mandatory access control using linux security module on the traditional linux kernel supporting discretionary access control. But intrusion detection and logging are lacked when system intrusions are happened. This study proposes a SELinux security kernel which performs detection of access violation and privilege restriction using dynamic access control. It detects the intrusion using security check when the abnormal access of system is happened, and dynamically changes the system privilege for the intruder through privilege restriction. Finally we prevent reintrusion and explain the result of experiment.

  • In this paper, we propose a new access control security architecture for supporting flexibility in Secure Operating Systems. By adding virtual access control system layer to the proposed security architecture, various access control models such as MAC, DAC, and RBAC can be applied to Secure Operating Systems easily. The proposed security architecture is designed to overcome the problem of Linux system's base access control system. A policy manager can compose various security models flexibly and apply them to Operating Systems dynamically. Also, the proposed architecture is composed of 3 modules such as access control enforcement, access control decision, and security control. And access control models are abstracted to hierarchy structure by virtual access control system. And, we present the notation of policy conflict and its resolution method by applying various access control model.

  • This paper formally defines a role-driven security and access control model of a business process in order eventually to provide a theoretical basis for realizing the secured business process management systems. That is, we propose a graphical representation and formal description of the mechanism that generates a set of role-driven security and access control models from a business process modeled by the information control net(ICN) modeling methodology that is a typical business process modeling approach for defining and specifying business processes. Based upon the mechanism, we are able to design and accomplish a secured business process management system that provides an unified resource access control mechanism of the business process management engine domain's and the application domain's. Finally, we strongly believe that the secured access control policies from the role-driven security and access control model can be easily transformed into the RBAC(Role-based Access Control) model that is a standardized security technology for computer and communications systems of commercial and civilian government organizations.

  • Many studies have been done on secure operating system using secure kernel that has various access control policies for system security. Secure kernel can protect user or system data from unauthorized and/or illegal accesses by applying various access control policies like DAC(Discretionary Access Control), MAC(Mandatory Access Control), RBAC(Role Based Access Control), and so on. But, even if secure operating system is running under various access control policies, network traffic among these secure operating systems can be captured and exposed easily by network monitoring tools like packet sniffer if there is no protection policy for network traffic among secure operating systems. For this reason, protection for data within network traffic is as important as protection for data within local system. In this paper, we propose a secure operating system trusted channel, SOSTC, as a prototype of a simple secure network protocol that can protect network traffic among secure operating systems and can transfer security information of the subject. It is significant that SOSTC can be used to extend a security range of secure operating system to the network environment.

  • IT security companies have been releasing file system filter driver security solutions based on the whitelist, which are being used by several enterprises in the relevant industries. However, in February 2019, a whitelist vulnerability was discovered in Microsoft Edge browser, which allows malicious code to be executed unknown to users. If a hacker had inserted a program that executed malicious code into the whitelist, it would have resulted in considerable damage. File system filter driver security solutions based on the whitelist are discretionary access control (DAC) models. Hence, the whitelist is vulnerable because it only considers the target subject to be accessed, without taking into account the access rights of the file target object. In this study, we propose an industrial device security system for Windows to address this vulnerability, which improves the security of the security policy by determining not only the access rights of the subject but also those of the object through the application of the mandatory access control (MAC) policy in the Windows industrial operating system. The access control method does not base the security policy on the whitelist; instead, by investigating the setting of the security policy not only for the subject but also the object, we propose a method that provides improved stability, compared to the conventional whitelist method.

  • Network access control should be able to effectively block security threats to the IT infrastructure, such as unauthorized access of unauthorized users and terminals, and illegal access of employees to internal servers. From this perspective, it is necessary to build metrics based on relevant standards to ensure that security is being met. Therefore, it is necessary to organize the method for security evaluation of NAC according to the related standards. Therefore, this study builds a model that combines the security evaluation part of ISO / IEC 15408 (CC: Common Criteria) and ISO 25000 series to develop security metric of network access control system. For this purpose, we analyzed the quality requirements of the network access control system and developed the convergence evaluation metric for security of the two international standards. It can be applied to standardization of evaluation method for network access control system in the future by constructing evaluation model of security quality level of network access control system.

  • The most significant change and trend in the information security market in the year of 2014 is in relation to the issue and incidents of personal information security, which leads the area of information security to a new phase. With the year of 2011 as the turning point, the security technology advanced based on the policies and conditions that combine personal information and information security in the same category. Such technical changes in information security involve various types of information, rapidly changing security policies in response to emerging illegal techniques, and embracing consistent changes in the network configuration accordingly. This study presents the result of standardization and quantification of external access inference by utilizing the measurements to fathom the access authorization performance in advance for information security in specialized networks designed to carry out certain tasks for a group of clients in the easiest and most simple manner. The findings will provide the realistic data available with the access authorization inference modes to control illegal access to the edge of a client network.

  • As a large quantity of information is presented in XML format on the web, there are increasing demands for XML security. Research area or n security is about Encryption Digital signature, Key management and Access control. until now research on U security has been focused on the security of data network using digital signature and encryption technology. As XML data become extensive and complex XML security comes to involve not only network security but also managerial security. Managerial security is guaranteed through access control. But XML Encryption supports simple network security. So it can't support multiple users and multiple access control policies. In this paper, we propose an integration method of encryption and access control policy for securing XML documents. This methodology can supper multiple authorizations of multiple users with integrating access control. And this can reduce the cost of evaluation process of the existing complicated access authorization with pre-processing.
