Abstract

Designing access control models requires effective analysis of different cloud components, user behavior patterns, identity parameters, etc. Existing access control models perform data overwriting for design of rule-update access control, thus do not incorporate dynamic pattern tracking for temporal user sets. Models that enable dynamic pattern tracking are either too complex to deploy, or do not incorporate immutability in their designs. To overcome these limitations, a novel blockchain-based access control model with Quality of Service (QoS)-awareness via bioinspired computing techniques is discussed in this text. The proposed model initially uses a single chained blockchain for storing access rules. Blockchain also allows the model to integrate rule-tracing, which assists in tracking access changes for user-to-entity behavioral patterns. But single blockchains might affect QoS of the cloud deployment, thus a bioinspired model for QoS-aware side chaining is deployed. This model assists in performing ‘archive & split’ operations on current blockchain, depending upon its current QoS performance. To estimate this performance, the model proposes use of a dynamic fitness function that incorporates service delay, throughput, access rule characteristics and service consistency metrics. These metrics along with temporal cloud performance are integrated to evaluate final decisions regarding ‘archive & split’ operations. The model was tested for smart farming applications, and was related with different state-of-the-art methods. The proposed model can be implemented for a wide range of real-time access control scenarios as a result of this performance optimization process.
