Access Control Models 7/9 Traditional Standard efficient manners to specify, enforce, and (possibly) exchange access rights ACL, SAML, OAuth, XACL, XACML Instance Based XPath Based Materialized View Virtual View Query Rewriting Annotation & labeling permission specifies the subject is (not) allowed to execute the action on the object nodes enforce policies during evaluation of users requests access policy is defined as a set of XPath expressions requests are rewritten w.r.t the underlying access policies ( //author[name$=name],Read,+) provide each group of users with a materialized view of all and only accessible data live for a long time scalable solution in huge data, an important number of users, and dynamic policies live only the time user connected grants/denies access to the entire resource annotation repeat for every user, every action a user takes, and each time the policy or the data are changed lack of support for authorized users to access the data when the XML data and/or access policies are changed, all users views should be changed Virtual XML views are often provided in text or HTML format Query Answering?!
