- Abstract
The rapid development of communication and network technologies including mobile networks and GPS presents new characteristics of OSNs. These new characteristics pose extra requirements on the access control schemes of OSNs, which cannot be satisfied by relationship-based access control currently. In this paper, we propose a hybrid access control model (HAC) which leverages attributes and relationships to control access to resources. A new policy specification language is developed to define policies considering the relationships and attributes of users. A path checking algorithm is proposed to figure out whether paths between two users can fit in with the hybrid policy. We develop a prototype system and demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed model.
