Abstract: Security principles are greatly significant to security analysis of authorization management model,but they are given little attention and are open problems.This paper proposed many security principles for RBAC-based authorization model with the aim at the security of the model.The security properties of RBAC were presented,including simple safety,simple availability,bounded safety,liveness and containment.Based on deep anatomy of security requirement in authorization management,the problems including data consistency,authorization without redundancy,controllable privi-lege diffusing,controllable management privilege delegating,satisfaction of separation of duty and privilege availability were discussed.The proposed security principles include consistency,security and availability principles.Analysis result indicates that the security principles are consistent with the security properties of RBAC,which can support the security requirements of authorization management efficiently and provide criterions for evaluating the security of RBAC-based authorization model.
