Abstract

Efforts that solve problems regarding the access control for web services are just in their beginning. This paper proposes access control architecture for web services. Rather than basing access solely on the identity of a client the access control decision also takes into account the roles that the client currently holds. The access control architecture is able to discover dynamically what type of authorization is required to access a particular resource; can find all authorizations about a single resource by authorization indexing techniques and can perform the merge and override of multiple authorizations referred to the same object.
