Item Open Access A lattice-based privacy aware access control model(2012) Ghazinour Naini, Kambiz; Barker, Kenneth E.Privacy is a leading concern for individuals who utilize computing resources for a variety of reasons, such as shopping online or visiting their health care provider. As service providers are collecting more data from customers, it becomes more crucial to the data providers how their data is treated after being collected. Hence, the fundamental part of this thesis is about data privacy. There are several ways proposed in the literature to preserve the privacy of data one of them is using access control models. Conventional access control models are not suitable for privacy preserving uses and a new model should be designed based on the characteristics of privacy predicates. One important aspect that is not sufficiently addressed by the research community is to consider the privacy preferences of data providers as well as the practices of collectors. Hence, in the new privacy aware access control there is a mechanism to give the opportunity to the data providers to express their privacy preferences about how the provided data is used.
