Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the authorisation service provided by Microsoft®.NET MyServices [1]. We propose modifications and extensions to eXtensible Markup Language (XML) [2] based data structures' schemas to support a range of commonly used access policies in commercial systems. We have developed the modified access evaluation algorithms that take the proposed extensions into account. The extensions proposed in this paper have been used in the specification and analysis of a practical application involving access control to electronic patient records in hospitals.
