Abstract

Access control mechanisms are a widely adopted technology for information security. Since access decisions (i.e., permit or deny) on requests are dependent on access control policies, ensuring the correct modeling and implementation of access control policies is crucial for adopting access control mechanisms. To address this issue, we develop a tool, called ACPT (Access Control Policy Testing), that helps to model and implement policies correctly during policy modeling, implementation, and verification.
