Abstract
When organizations are collaborating, their access control models need to interoperate. However, nowadays in the industry, there are too many access control models variants and, most of times; the interoperability enforcement consumes an extra effort. In this context, this paper identifies the challenges towards how to design and enforce a meta-access control model to facilitate the interoperability between the different access control mechanisms available. The problem is posed using an ontological approach. Then, the challenges are explained using a descriptive explanation of the meta access control enforcement. The core issues addressed are: access models interoperability, standardization of storage for access data and provisioning of access models.
