A study for access control flow analysis with a proposed job analyzer component based on stack inspection methodology

Security problems arise in software systems are very challenging. Using program analysis techniques and some language based security rules can help in enforcing application-level security through control access to program resources and verification of control flow of the information inside the program based on some security properties. This paper presents a new job analyzer component for an intrusion detection system which works inside our developed computational grid system called “HIMAN” to analyze access required by a certain submitted task to the grid resources. This paper consists of three parts. First part is a survey for the previous work for access control, information flow security analyses, and the stack inspection methodology. Second part is a representation for a static analysis study for enhancing the stack inspection methodology in order to optimize the program complexity. Finally, the third part explains how to use the access control flow analysis based on the enhanced stack inspection methodology described in this paper to develop the new job analyzer component.
