Access control is a key issue in the deployment of systems within corporations. To comply with legal and business requirements and to prevent unauthorized access, the identification and authentication of all users is required. This is typically achieved by using an access control system that performs the identification & authentication of each user at the point of entry into the system. However, as the systems evolve and thus become more complex it is difficult to ensure reliable access control, especially if they are accessed via mobile devices. This paper focuses on improving the existing access control approach for service-oriented systems by applying the concept of device comfort to service providers. Similar to the concept of device comfort, service providers are empowered to decide if they feel comfortable with requests sent to them. This paper presents and evaluates the idea of integrating trust evaluations into service-oriented systems by requiring each service provider to evaluate the trustworthiness of requests and to share their evaluations as part of the call-context within the call-stack.
