Art Cafe #67 - Joon Ahn

The Internet is uniquely and strategically positioned to address the needs of a growing segment of population in a verycost-effective way. It provides tremendous connectivity and immense information sharing capability which the organizationscan use for their competitive advantage. Several organizations have transited from their old and disparate business modelsbased on ink and paper to a new, consolidated ones based on digital information on the Internet. However, information sharingon the Internet usually occurs in broad, highly dynamic network-based environments, and formally accessing the resources in asecure manner poses a difficult challenge. Balancing the competing goals of collaboration and security is difficult becauseinteraction in collaborative systems is targeted towards making people, information, and resources available to all who needit, whereas information security seeks to ensure the integrity of these elements while providing it only to those with properauthorization. As organizations implement information strategies that call for sharing access to resources in the networkedenvironment, mechanisms must be provided to protect the resources from adversaries.This talk addresses the issue of how to advocate selective information sharing in collaborative systems through accesscontrol schemes while minimizing the risks of unauthorized access proposing a delegation framework. It also introduces asystematic approach to specify delegation and revocation policies using a set of rules. The feasibility of the proposedframework is also discussed through policy specification, enforcement, and a proof-of-concept implementation.  About the speaker: Gail-Joon Ahn is an assistant professor of Software and Information Systems Department at University of North Carolina atCharlotte and a coordinator of Laboratory of Information Integration, Security and Privacy which has been designated as aCenter of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education by National Security Agency. His principal research andteaching interests are in information and systems security. Ahn received PhD and MS degrees from George Mason University,Fairfax, Virginia, and BS degree in Computer Science from SoongSil University, Seoul, Korea. His research foci include accesscontrol, security architecture for distributed objects, and secure e-commerce systems and his research has been supported byNSF, NSA, DoD, Bank of America, Hewlett Packard, Microsoft and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Ahn is currently aninformation director of ACM Special Interest Group on Security, Audit and Control (SIGSAC).
