Attribute-Based Access Control

I recently had the pleasure of talking with Dominic Heutelbeck about Attribute-Based Access Control. Dominic is a computer science professor leading the FTK (Forschungsinstitut für Telekommunikation und Kooperation e.V.) Research Institute in Dortmund, Germany.  In the first portion of our talk, Dominic explained what access control is and its importance. He also explained what Attribute-Based Access Control is and why one would want to use it. He explained policies, differences between traditional ABAC and existing standards, such as XACML, and much more.  In the next portion of our conversation, Dominic will explain how ABAC can be used to secure Axon-based applications.  Below are some resources to learn more about our topic of conversation and Dominic's research: FTK Institute: https://www.ftk.de/SAPL Website: https://sapl.io/SAPL Playground: https://playground.sapl.io/SAPL Demos (Including Axon Demo) on GitHub: https://github.com/heutelbeck/sapl-demos  Connect with Dominic on LinkedIn and GitHub.  Connect with Sara on LinkedIn and Twitter.  For more information about us visit axoniq.io
