Summary:
The paper proposes a novel zero trust architecture which aims to achieve fine-grained access control with low cost. Fine-grained network access control is challenging to implement because of lack of information caused by encryption or vendor specific payload as well as the high cost of design and management of access control designed with fine-grained high-level access policy. We propose an architecture leveraging automated policy generation scheme to achieve fine-grained network access control with low design and implementation cost. The core component is attribute relation extraction which enables the execution of access request evaluation. The policy decision is made by a refined network access policy without requiring the explicit definition of high-level policy, saving processing time and storage cost achieving low cost access control.
