Abstract | This paper describes an approach to the security fault tolerance of access control in which the security breaches of an access control are tolerated by means of a security fault tolerant (SFT) access control. Though an access control is securely designed and implemented, it can contain faults in development or be contaminated in operation. The threats to an access control are analyzed to identify possible security breaches. To tolerate the security breaches, an SFT access control is made to be semantically identical to an access control. Our approach is described using role-based access control (RBAC) and extended access control list (EACL). A healthcare system is used to demonstrate our approach. |
