Abstract

Access control mechanisms are the way to guarantee secure access to grid resources. Recent research works were focused on how to improve the representation of the resources' security policies for faster decisions making. PCM, HCM, GAG, and WGAG are all different ways to represent these security policies. This paper presents an enhancement to WGAG, the action-weighted grid authorization graph (Action-WGAG). A security policy-parser (SP-Parser) has been developed to implement the Action-WGAG. The evaluation results of the proposed model showed that it assures a smaller number of security rule checking in some cases and a reduction of the answer time to an access control request.
