We suggest a scheme to cryptographically support role based access control (RBAC) in large organizations where user roles change frequently. To achieve this, we propose a secure method to manage role keys and we extend a recent pairing-based mediated identity-based cryptographic scheme to allow the enforcement of possession of multiple roles to access certain documents. We also design an architecture and a set of algorithms which cryptographically enforce RBAC and allow for role addition, revocation, and delegation. Finally, we briefly discuss the space requirements and security of our scheme. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
