| Abstract | The advent of latest technologies and digitalization of every transaction has made the work of people easier and time - saving . These days every organization such as banking, hospital, e - commerce sites, insurance sectors, social networking sites and other companies are providing online services to t heir users which although might have their advantages , is also becoming a major privacy concern . Credit card details, user ‟ s personal information , clinical records and other important information might get leaked to unauthorized personnel. On top of that , users desire to get social and share personal information, likes/ dislikes, and their day - to - day activities on social networking sites such as Facebook, Google+ has also added more problems which might get intercepted by outsiders if not taken care of. Man y online organizations provides access control mechanisms and privacy policies to protect users privacy but much of the policies are not completely able to cover the user‟s concerns so a brief discussion and analysis is being done in chapter 2 between privacy languages such as Protune, Cassandra, Rei, Ponder 2 , XACML, PeerTrust and EPAL to find out which language can be applicable in all scenarios. T o ensure privacy in various sectors, Ponder2 has been strongly recommended which implement s authorization policy in Hospital and Social Networking Site scenario in our research study . The research presents a system which uses ponder2 policy language to develop policies which will allow/disallow users from accessing data in an organizational scenario. First, it gives a brief overview of the language. Second, models are being designed for both the Hospital and the Social Network scenario for a better understanding. Finally, the research implements the system based on the proposed scenario and test whether it has been able to give the results that has been expected. |
