The domain of access control has long suffered from a lack of expressiveness in specifying access control policies. Recent approaches have leveraged contextual fingerprinting to formulate access control frameworks for both generating and enforcing access control policies. However, effectively and automatically identifying the context attributes relevant for access has proven challenging and cumbersome. An approach that shows promise in supporting more expressive and easy-to-use attribute-based access control relies on recent advances in continuous neighbor discovery protocols and low cost wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). These technologies have created opportunities to build smart environments that can seamlessly and inexpensively provide rich contextual data. These capabilities have the potential to enable new transparent and automatic approaches to defining and evaluating access control policies for mobile users and for detecting anomalous access patterns in smart environments. In this paper, we present the LAD framework that uses raw contextual data available via technologies such as BLE to derive real-time attributes defined by the presence of mobile and static nodes in the nearby environment. Based on user interactions in these environments, our framework learns appropriate access control policies and enforces these policies based on attributes that change in real-time as users move in the smart environment.
