Abstract

The trade-off between certain attributes such as efficiency and cost is always present when it comes to developing applications. Different approaches have been proposed that address the problem of protecting XML documents from unauthorized access especially at the granularity level. Some approaches deploy documents into memory to deliver fast runtime results, and some rather to process access requests statically by labeling each node within XML documents to avoid multiple checks when decisions are made. Web services and e-commerce applications are definitely increasing in day by day bases, access control approaches are highly encouraged to consider these high demands when developing any model. We propose an XML access control model that Eliminates the need of accessing XML documents in databases by analyzing references to XML objects. Giving an access control policy, even with the increase of documents size or access requests, we show that our model closely costs the same. Case studies are left for future work to insure the completeness of our reference contexts.

Key Words   
XML, XPath, Security, Policy, Granularity.
