Abstract:
|
In decentralized network-based environments, resource sharing occurs more frequently as
computing becomes more pervasive. Access to shared resources must be protected allowing
access only to authorized entities. Delegation is a powerful mechanism to provide flexible
and distributed access control when a user acts on another user’s behalf. User’s rights/
attributes are contained in digital certificates and successive delegations generate chains of
certificates.When an access control decision related to a delegation path has to be taken, its
corresponding certificate chain has to be validated. Validation of long delegation paths is
a costly process that might be critical when constrained devices are involved. In this article,
we propose a mechanism called PREON (Prefix Revocation) which is based on prefix codes.
PREON allows a privilege verifier to efficiently check a delegation chain when cascade
revocation is enabled. We show by statistical analysis that our proposal outperforms delegation
systems without prefix coding especially for long delegation paths and high revocation
probabilities. |
