Abstract

Recent growth in location-based mobile services has introduced a significant need for location and time-based access control to resources. High mobility of the users and services in the emerging mobile applications in particular make the issue of controlling who can access what information and resources from which locations a daunting challenge. Several RBAC based models have been proposed that attempt to capture the location based and/or time-based access control requirements in various applications. However, they have limited flexibility and granularity. In this paper, we propose a Location and Time-based RBAC (LoT-RBAC) model to address the access control requirements of highly mobile, dynamic environments to provide both location and time based control.
