Abstract

Access control is concerned with limiting the activity of legitimate users in an application. Role-based access control (RBAC) uses role to indirectly describe the access rights. This indirectly mapping is very flexible. However, current RBAC models are not suitable to describe fine-grained access control for data-centric enterprise applications. In this paper, we present a pragmatic role-based access control model for data-centric application. The access control is fine-grained and flexible. An object-oriented implementation is also presented. Users are identified by digital certificates. The proposed model is designed for three-tier enterprise application.
