Title
Role-based access control on the web using LDAP
Abstract
This paper gives a framework for how to leverage Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) to implement Role-based Access Control (RBAC) on the Web in the server-pull architecture. LDAP-based directory services have recently received much attention because they can support object-oriented hierarchies of entries in which we can easily search and modify attributes over TCP/IP. To implement RBAC on the Web, we use an LDAP directory server as a role server that contains users' role information. The role information in the role server is referred to by Web servers for access control purposes through LDAP in a secure manner (over SSL). We provide a comparison of this work to our previous work, RBAC on the Web in the user-pull architecture.
