In systems with a very dynamic process like Industry 4.0, contexts of all
participating entities often change and a lot of data exchange happens with
external organizations such as suppliers or producers which brings concern
about unauthorized data access. This creates the need for access control
systems to be able to handle such a combination of a highly dynamic system and
the arising concern about the security of data. In many situations the
decision for access control depends on the context information of the
requester. Another problem of dynamic system is that the manual development
of access policies can be time consuming and expensive. Approaches using
automated policy generation have shown to reduce this effort.
In this master thesis we introduce a concept which combines context based
model-driven security with automated policy generation and evaluate if it
is a suitable option for the creation of access control systems and if it
can reduce the effort in policy generation. The approach makes use of usage
and misusage diagrams which are on a high architectural abstraction level
to derive and combine access policies for data elements which are located
on a lower abstraction level.
