An XML Access Control Method through Filtering XPath Expressions
2005
XML (extensible Markup Language) is recognized as a standard of data representation and transmission on Internet. XPath is a standard for specifying parts of XML documents anda suitable language for both query processing and access control of XML. In this paper, we use the XPath expression for representing user queries and access control for XML. And we propose an access control method for XML, where we control accesses to XML documents by filtering query XPath expressions through access control XPath expressions. In the proposed method, we directly search XACT (XML Access Control Tree) for a query XPath expression and extract the access-granted parts. The XACT is our proposedstructure, where the edges are structural summary of XML elements and the nodes contain access-control information. We show the query XPath expressions are successfully filtered through the XACT by our proposed method, and also show the performance improvement by comparing the proposed method with the previous work.
