A Usage-Based Authorization Architecture for Multidomain Environments

Establishing interoperability is the first and foremost problem of secure interoperation in multi-domain environments. This paper proposes a secure interoperation architecture to facilitate the establishment of secure interoperability in multidomain environments, which employ Usage Control (UCON) policies, followed with the attribute management to support usage control in multidomain environment. The study of the instance shows the validity of the proposed architecture, which can address the requirements of access policy representation for temporal and time consuming problems.
