Abstract

In this paper, we describe an experiment of designing and implementing a rolebased extranet access management (EAM) by leveraging role-based access control (RBAC) and X.S09 attribute certificates for scalable and interoperable authorization. Compared with previous works in this area, we show that our approach can overcome the problems of previous solutions and broaden RBAC's applicability into large-scale networks. The components for role administration are defined and a security architecture is discussed. We also demonstrate the feasibility of our approach through a proof-of-concept implementation. Several issues from our experiment are briefly discussed as well.
