Abstract

Policies, which are widely deployed in networking services (e.g., management, QoS, mobility, etc.), are a promising solution for securing wide distributed systems. However, the adoption of a policy-based approach for security requires an appropriate policy specification and enforcement tools. In fact, A long-standing problem in distributed systems security is how to specify and enforce correctly security policies. In this paper, we mainly focus on how to systematically specify correct policies instead of manually configuring them and how to automatically enforce security policies in distributed systems. A software engineering approach is presented to overcome these issues. This approach is based on design and developpement of a software architecture to automating definition and enforcing policies.
