Abstract :
This paper describes a pattern-based technique for systematic development of UML models of secure systems using access control. Access control is viewed and specified as a design pattern. An access control pattern is applied to a functional UML model of an application to be secured using a composition algorithm. We demonstrate the technique using mandatory access control (MAC) and a model of a simple file system. We also discuss how the composed model can be evaluated for security assurance expected from the applied access control
