Evaluation of a Security Policy Based on OrBAC Model Using MotOrBAC: Application E-learning

Abstract

E-learning is a new method of learning which depends on the Internet in its execution. Nowday’s e-learning’s popularity is increasing as more and more people are taking online courses. It becomes the need of the hour, since it is being used as a big platform for enhancing and upgrading knowledge by increasing flexibility in various fields and providing ways to make learning easier. However E-learning has several challenges, one of these major challenges is Information Security. The security aspect is even more important for controlling access to information resources intended to specific users depending on several predefined contexts. Defining such access control is directly related to the appliance of a control access policy, responsible of securing learning sessions in an e-learning platform.
