Behavioural Control

We describe the self-adaptive authorization framework (SAAF), an autonomic self-adapting system for federated RBAC/ABAC authorization infrastructures. SAAF monitors the behaviour of users, and when it detects abnormal behaviour, it responds by adapting the authorization infrastructure to prevent any further abnormal behaviour. The models and components of SAAF are described, as well as the current limitations and where future research is still needed. Categories and Subject Descriptor
