HardenedPERMIS

HardenedPERMIS is a hardened version of OpenPERMIS (see www.openpermis.org). It implements a fully fledged Permission Management Infrastructure (PMI) allowing organisations to integrate Role-Based Access Control in complex application scenarios. HardenedPermis is an implementation of a policy decision point (PDP) and its infrastructure as needed to realize a Role Based Access Control (RBAC) authorization mechanism / Privilege Management Infrastructure (PMI). It is based on the use of X.509 attribute certificates and can be deployed as an integral part of an application or as a dedicated service in a distributed environment (i.e. a service-oriented architecture).
