Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of data security technology, and in particular to a file access method, a file access permission determination method, a device, and related equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the process of using data, malicious attacks such as leakage, tampering and extortion often occur, which poses a security risk. It is necessary to adopt certain security protection methods to protect data and prevent data from being attacked.

[0003] At present, the attack detection method is usually adopted to timely discover and deal with attacks to improve the security of data. However, there are many types of attacks, and it is difficult to discover various attacks through detection methods, and the effect of defending against attacks cannot meet the needs of data security. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present application provides a file access method and a file access permission determination method, aiming to achieve data protection of files at the file granularity when users access files. In addition, the present application also provides corresponding devices, computing devices, computer-readable storage media and computer program products.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a file access method. The method is applied to a first device. The first device obtains a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object. The file access request includes access operation information, and the access operation information is used to describe the access operation that the request object needs to perform on the target file. The request object is a user who requests to access the target file. The request object is a system user of an operating system program of the first device, or an application user of an application program. The first device obtains permission policy information of the request object. The permission policy information is determined based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request, and is used to indicate the permission of the request object to operate the target file. The file tag policy information corresponds to the file tag of the target file, and is used to describe the control policy for the access operation on the target file. The file tag includes one or more security dimension tags. The file tag is set by the manager of the target file or generated based on the file attributes of the target file. The first device performs access control on the request object to access the target file according to the permission policy information. Based on the file tag, data protection with file granularity can be realized, and the security of file access can be improved. File-centric data security protection can reduce security issues such as file tampering and leakage to a certain extent, and improve the protection of file integrity and confidentiality.

[0006] In a possible implementation, the first device generates the permission policy information of the request object according to the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object.

[0007] In a possible implementation, the second device generates permission policy information of the request object. The first device sends a permission request for the target file to the second device. The permission request includes the file label policy information of the target file, the access operation information and the public key of the request object. The file label policy information of the target file is encrypted by the public key of the target file. The first device obtains the permission information fed back by the second device. The permission information includes a first ciphertext. The first ciphertext includes a ciphertext obtained by encrypting the permission policy information of the request object using the public key of the request object. The permission policy information of the request object is obtained by the second device using the private key of the target file, the file label policy information of the target file and the access operation information. The first device decrypts the first ciphertext using the private key of the request object to obtain the permission policy information of the request object. The second device decrypts the file label policy information of the target file using the private key of the target file and determines the permission policy information. The first device does not need to have the private key of the target file, thereby reducing the security problem of the file label policy information being tampered with after the private key of the target file possessed by the first device is leaked, improving the security level of the file label policy information, and thereby improving the security level of the target file. Furthermore, the file tag policy information and permission policy information exchanged between the first device and the second device are both encrypted information, thereby reducing the risk of information leakage during the interaction between the first device and the second device.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the target file is encrypted using a file encryption key. The file encryption key is encapsulated in the file tag policy information of the target file. The permission information obtained by the first device also includes a second ciphertext obtained by encrypting the file encryption key using the public key of the requesting object. Before executing access control on the requesting object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information of the requesting object, if it is determined based on the permission policy information that the requesting object has access rights, the first device decrypts the target file using the file encryption key. The file encryption key is obtained by the first device decrypting the second ciphertext using the private key of the requesting object. Encrypting each file in this way improves the security of the file. Using a key unique to a file can also effectively reduce the security threat to multiple files caused by key leakage due to encryption using a unified key.

[0009] In a possible implementation, the first device further obtains the file tag of the target file, and generates the file tag policy information of the target file based on the file tag and the tag policy template. In this way, the file tag policy information can be automatically generated according to the file tag of the target file and using the tag policy template.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the tag policy template is obtained from the second device.

[0011] In a possible implementation, the user who sets the file label policy information can also customize and update the file label policy information. The first device obtains the customized label policy information for the target file; and uses the customized label policy information to update the file label policy information of the target file. In this way, the customized adjustment of the file label policy information can be achieved, the flexibility of configuring the file label policy information is improved, and it is convenient to configure the file label policy information that meets the file protection requirements for the file.

[0012] In a possible implementation manner, the first device is a host.

[0013] In a possible implementation manner, the method is applied to an application layer of the first device, or to a system layer of the first device, or to an application layer and a system layer of the first device.

[0014] In a possible implementation, the first device is a storage device. The request object triggers a file access request through a third device connected to the first device. The first device obtains a file access request for a target file sent by the third device and triggered by the request object. The file access request is encapsulated by the third device using a security protocol. The first device unpacks the file access request using the security protocol. In this way, the security protocol can be used to protect the security of the file access request, thereby improving the security of the file.

[0015] In a possible implementation, the first device generates feedback file information according to the permission policy information of the request object and the access operation information of the request object, and sends the feedback file information encapsulated by the security protocol to the third device. The security protocol is used to improve the security of information transmitted between the first device and the third device.

[0016] In a possible implementation, the method is applied to a system layer of a first device, and the application is a preset security application.

[0017] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for determining file access rights. The method is applied to a second device. The second device obtains a permission request for a target file sent by the first device. The permission request includes file label policy information of the target file, access operation information, and the public key of the request object. The file label policy information is encrypted by the public key of the target file and is used to describe the control policy for the access operation on the target file. The file label policy information corresponds to the file label of the target file. The file label is set by the manager of the target file or generated based on the file attributes of the target file. The file label includes one or more labels of security dimensions. The request object is the system user of the operating system program of the first device, or the application user of the application program. The second device decrypts the file label policy information using the private key of the target file, and determines the permission policy information of the request object based on the file label policy information and the access operation information of the target file. The permission policy information is used to describe the permission policy of the request object for the access operation of the target file. The second device encrypts the permission policy information of the request object using the public key of the request object to obtain the first ciphertext, and sends the permission information including the first ciphertext to the first device. The second device uses the private key of the target file to decrypt the file label policy information of the target file and determine the permission policy information, which can avoid the first device having the private key of the target file, reduce the security issues caused by the leakage of the private key of the target file possessed by the first device, improve the security of the file label policy information, and thus improve the security of the target file. In addition, the file label policy information and permission policy information exchanged between the first device and the second device are both encrypted information, which improves the security of the information in the interaction process between the first device and the second device and reduces the risk of information leakage during the interaction process between the first device and the second device.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the target file is encrypted using a file encryption key. The file encryption key is encapsulated in the file tag policy information of the target file. The second device also uses the public key of the request object to encrypt the file encryption key to obtain a second ciphertext. The permission information sent by the second device to the first device also includes the second ciphertext. The second device sends the encrypted file encryption key to the first device, so that the first device can decrypt the target file based on the file encryption key and control the access of the request object. Using a key unique to the target file can also effectively avoid security threats to multiple files caused by key leakage caused by encryption using a unified key, thereby improving the data security of the target file.

[0019] In a possible implementation, the second device further provides the first device with a label policy template. In response to obtaining the label policy template acquisition request sent by the first device, the second device sends the label policy template to the first device.

[0064] The scheme in the embodiments provided in this application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in this application.

[0065] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances. This is just a way of distinguishing objects with the same attributes when describing the embodiments of this application.

[0066] Data is a relatively important asset, containing important information of individuals or enterprises. In the process of using data, it is necessary to prevent data from being attacked to avoid data leakage, data tampering or data unavailability. At present, attack detection algorithms are usually built in dimensions such as network, host and storage. Detection algorithms are used to detect attack behaviors in a timely manner and process them to maintain data security. However, the attack behaviors that can be detected by the detection algorithm are limited. It can only identify currently known attack behaviors and it is difficult to detect unknown attacks. There are still security risks. In addition, the detection algorithm has detection errors, which may affect the normal operation of the business that processes data. The method of using detection algorithms to detect attacks is difficult to meet the needs of data security.

[0067] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a file access method applied to a first device. The first device obtains a file access request including access operation information for a target file triggered by a request object. The first device obtains permission policy information of the request object. Among them, the permission policy information of the request object is determined based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object. The file tag policy information corresponds to the file tag of the target file. The file tag policy information is used to describe the control policy for the access operation on the target file. The first device performs access control on the request object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information. The use of file tag policy information can achieve security protection for data with file as the granularity. In this way, data-centric security protection is achieved, which can reduce the security risks of tampering, leakage and extortion faced by files to a certain extent. In addition, the file tag can be configured based on the security protection requirements of the file, thereby achieving flexible configuration of file tag policy information to meet the security requirements of different files.

[0068] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the deployment of the file access method and the file access permission determination method. For some examples, see Figure 1a-Figure 4c As shown, the embodiments of the present application provide four application scenario schematic diagrams.

[0069] As an example, see Figure 1aAs shown, the file access method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a tag policy client or a tag policy software development kit (SDK), and deployed in an application of the first device, that is, deployed in the application layer of the first device. The first device is, for example, a host. The request object requesting access to the target file can be an application user of the application of the first device, or a system user of the operating system program of the first device. Figure 1a The scenario shown can be, for example, a scenario where an application has an independent user system. The application layer of the first device implements control over the access to files by an application user of an application of the first device or a system user of an operating system program.

[0070] In one possible implementation, the application layer of the first device includes a tag policy client or a tag policy software development kit, which obtains a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object, generates permission policy information of the request object based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object, and performs access control on the request object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information.

[0071] In another possible implementation, see Figure 1b As shown, the first device interacts with the second device to implement access control on the target file. The embodiment of the present application provides a method for determining file access rights. The method for determining file access rights can be applied to a tag policy service, or a tag policy management component, deployed on a second device. The second device is, for example, a server. Figure 1cAs shown, the figure is a schematic diagram of the interaction between a first device and a second device provided by an embodiment of the present application. The application layer of the first device includes a label policy client or a label policy software development kit, including an initialization module, a file label generation module, a file label policy information generation module, an access request processing module and an access operation control module. The label policy service of the second device, or a label policy management component, includes an initialization module and a permission information determination module. The initialization module of the first device interacts with the initialization module of the second device to implement initialization authentication, that is, identity authentication and certificate issuance. The file label generation module of the first device is used to generate a file label based on user triggering, or automatically generate a file label, and send a label policy template acquisition request to the second device to obtain the label policy template fed back by the second device. The file label policy information generation module of the first device generates file label policy information of the target file based on the file label and the label policy template. The access request processing module of the first device is used to send a permission request to the permission information determination module of the second device based on the file access request triggered by the request object. The permission information determination module of the second device parses the file label policy information based on the permission request, determines the permission policy information of the request object, and sends permission information including the permission policy information of the request object encrypted using the public key of the request object to the first device. The access operation control module of the first device is used to control the access operation of the request object based on the permission policy information of the request object included in the permission information.

[0072] As another example, see Figure 2a As shown, the file access method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the tag kernel module, which is deployed in the operating system (OS) of the first device, that is, deployed in the system layer of the first device. The first device is, for example, a host. Among them, the request object requesting access to the target file can be a system user of the operating system of the first device, or an application user of the application. Figure 2a The scenario shown is, for example, a scenario where the application and the OS have a unified user system, or the user system of the application can be synchronized to the user system of the OS, or the application does not have an independent user system. The system layer of the first device implements control over the application user of the application or the system user of the operating system program accessing files.

[0073] In one possible implementation, the system layer of the first device includes a tag kernel module that obtains a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object, generates permission policy information of the request object based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object, and performs access control on the request object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information.

[0074] In another possible implementation, see Figure 2b As shown, the first device interacts with the second device to implement access control on the target file. The file access permission determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a tag policy service or a tag policy management component deployed on the second device. The second device is, for example, a server. Figure 2c As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of another interaction between a first device and a second device provided by an embodiment of the present application. The system layer of the first device includes a tag policy client or a tag policy software development kit, including an initialization module, a file tag generation module, a file tag policy information generation module, an access request processing module, and an access operation control module. The tag policy service of the second device, or the tag policy management component, includes an initialization module and a permission information determination module. The interaction process between the first device and the second device is the same as the above Figure 1c The corresponding examples are similar and will not be repeated here.

[0075] As another example, see Figure 3a As shown, the file access method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the tag kernel module, as well as the tag policy client or the tag policy SDK, and deployed in the OS and application of the first device, that is, deployed in the system layer and application layer of the first device. The first device is, for example, a host. Among them, the request object requesting access to the target file can be the system user of the operating system program of the first device, or the application user of the application. Figure 3a The scenario shown is, for example, a business scenario with high security requirements. The system layer and the application layer of the first device cooperate to implement the control of the application user of the application program, or the system user of the operating system program, accessing the file.

[0076] In one possible implementation, the tag kernel module of the first device, and the tag policy client or tag policy SDK, obtain a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object, generate permission policy information of the request object based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object, and perform access control on the request object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information.

[0077] In another possible implementation, see Figure 3b As shown, the first device interacts with the second device to implement access control on the target file. The file access permission determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a tag policy service or a tag policy management component deployed on the second device. The second device is, for example, a server.

[0078] See also Figure 3cAs shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of another interaction between a first device and a second device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The system layer and application layer of the first device include a tag policy client or a tag policy software development kit, including an initialization module, a file tag generation module, a file tag policy information generation module, an access request processing module, and an access operation control module. The tag policy service of the second device, or the tag policy management component, includes an initialization module and a permission information determination module. The interaction process between the first device and the second device is the same as the above Figure 1c The corresponding examples are similar and will not be repeated here.

[0079] As yet another example, see Figure 4a As shown, Figure 4a The scenario shown is applicable to storage scenarios. The file access method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the tag kernel module and deployed in the first device. The first device is, for example, a storage device. The first device is also connected to a third device. The third device is, for example, a production host. The requesting object requesting access to the target file accesses the target file stored in the first device through the third device. The first device and the third device communicate via a security protocol. The first device also includes a security protocol server. The third device includes a security protocol client. The security protocol server and the security protocol client are used to encapsulate or unpack the transmission information using the security protocol to achieve communication between the first device and the third device. In this way, the requesting object can complete the access operation to the target file stored in the first device on the third device.

[0080] In one possible implementation, the tag kernel module of the first device obtains a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object, generates permission policy information of the request object based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object, and performs access control on the request object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information.

[0081] In another possible implementation, see Figure 4b As shown, the first device interacts with the second device to implement access control on the target file. The file access permission determination method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to a tag policy service, or a tag policy management component, deployed on the second device. The second device is, for example, a management device for a storage device. Figure 4cAs shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of another interaction between a first device and a second device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The first device includes a label policy client or a label policy software development kit, including an initialization module, a file label generation module, a file label policy information generation module, an access request processing module and an access operation control module. The first device also includes a security protocol server. The label policy service of the second device, or the label policy management component, includes an initialization module and a permission information determination module. The third device A and the third device B include a security protocol client. The interaction process between the first device and the second device is the same as the above Figure 1c The corresponding examples are similar and will not be repeated here. The security protocol client of the third device A is used to obtain the file tag selected by the user, and uses the security protocol to encapsulate the file tag and send it to the first device. The security protocol server of the first device uses the security protocol to decapsulate the file tag and sends the file tag to the file tag generation module. The security protocol client of the third device A is used to obtain the file access request triggered by the request object, and uses the security protocol to encapsulate the file access request and send it to the first device. The security protocol server of the first device uses the security protocol to decapsulate the file access request and sends the file access request to the access request processing module. In this way, it is possible to control the access to files by the request object, that is, the application user of the application of the third device, or the system user of the operating system program.

[0082] It should be noted that the above Figure 1a-Figure 4c The application scenarios shown are only examples, and the application scenarios of the file access method and the file access permission determination method provided in this application are not limited to Figure 1a-Figure 4c Limitations of the application scenarios shown.

[0083] Next, various non-limiting specific implementations of the file access method and the file access permission determination method provided by the present application are described in detail.

[0084] See also Figure 5 As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of a process flow of a file access method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to a first device and includes S501-S503.

[0085] S501: The first device obtains a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object.

[0086] The request object is an object that requests access to a target file stored in the first device through the first device. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the identity of the request object. The request object is, for example, a user. As an example, the user is an application user of an application program of the first device, or a system user of an operating system program of the first device. In addition, the request object is, for example, a user and a program process. The program process is a process in which a user triggers a file access request.

[0087] It should be noted that in some possible implementations, the user who is the object of the request needs to pass security authentication.

[0088] In a possible implementation, a first device establishes a connection with a second device. During the initialization phase, the first device exchanges user information with the second device to complete authentication of the user. The authentication process includes two processes: identity authentication and the second device issuing a certificate to the first device. During the identity authentication process, the first device sends object information of an object involved in file access. As some examples, the first device sends user information of a user logged in to the application, or user information of a user logged in to the operating system program of the first device.

[0089] The second device authenticates the object based on the acquired object information and sends the authentication result to the first device. The first device determines the object that has passed the security authentication based on the authentication result. If the request object is already an authenticated object, the first device can determine whether the request object has passed the security authentication based on the authentication result. In the case where the request object has passed the security authentication, the first device processes the file access request for the target file triggered by the request object. If the request object has not passed the security authentication, the first device does not process the file access request for the target file triggered by the request object. If the request object is an unauthenticated object, such as a user who logs in to the first device for the first time, the first device sends the user information of the request object to the second device. The second device authenticates the request object based on the acquired user information of the request object and sends the authentication result of the request object to the first device. The first device can determine whether the request object has passed the security authentication based on the authentication result of the request object. In the case where the request object has passed the security authentication, the first device processes the file access request for the target file triggered by the request object. If the request object has not passed the security authentication, the first device does not process the file access request for the target file triggered by the request object.

[0090] In another implementation, Figure 2a and Figure 3aTaking the application scenario shown as an example, the file access method provided by the embodiment of the present application is applied to the system layer of the first device. That is, the file access method is executed by the operating system program of the first device. The request object can be an application user of an application deployed by the first device. After obtaining the file access request triggered by the application user, the system layer of the first device first verifies whether the application to which the application user belongs is a safe application. For example, based on a pre-established application whitelist. The application whitelist includes information about safe applications. Determine whether the application user is an application user of an application included in the application whitelist. If the application user is an application user of an application included in the application whitelist, the first device processes the file access request for the target file triggered by the application user. If the application user is not an application user of an application included in the application whitelist, the first device does not process the file access request for the target file triggered by the request object. In this way, it is possible to implement security authentication of the application to which the application user belongs, limit applications that access files, prevent malicious processing of files by applications, such as deleting files, and improve the security of files.

[0091] The target file stored in the first device is a file that pre-configures the file label policy information. The file label policy information corresponds to the file label of the target file. The file label can be set based on the attributes of the file and the need for file protection. The file label policy information is used to describe the control policy for access operations on the target file. The file label policy information is used to indicate the permission policy that needs to be followed to access the target file. The target file is protected by the file label policy information.

[0092] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the configuration method of the file tag policy information of the target file. In one possible implementation method, it can be directly configured by the owner or manager of the target file. In another possible implementation method, it is edited and generated by the owner or manager of the target file. The embodiment of the present application provides a specific implementation method for generating the file tag policy information of the target file, please see below for details.

[0093] The file access request includes access operation information. The access operation information includes the object information of the request object and the operation information of the request object requesting to perform an access operation on the target file. As an example, the object information of the request object may be, for example, the account information and object type of the request object. For example, the request object is a user, and the account information is the user's account. The object type may be, for example, a system user or an application user. Different types of request objects are distinguished to facilitate determining the permission policy information of different types of request objects, implement access control on different types of request objects, and improve the security of data. In some possible implementations, the object information of the request object also includes the process information of the program process that triggers the file access request, such as the process number. The operation information may include, for example, the type of access operation.

[0094] S502: The first device obtains permission policy information of the request object.

[0095] The permission policy information of the request object is used to indicate the permission of the request object to operate the target file. The permission policy information of the request object is determined based on the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object.

[0096] The embodiments of the present application do not limit possible implementation methods for the first device to obtain permission policy information.

[0097] In a possible implementation, the first device generates permission policy information of the request object according to the file tag policy information of the target file and the file access request of the request object.

[0098] Based on the acquired access operation information, the first device determines the permission policy information related to the access operation information from the file tag policy information of the target file, and obtains the permission policy information of the request object. The permission policy information of the request object is used to indicate the permission of the request object to operate the target file.

[0099] As an example, the file label policy information of the target file includes the operations that can be performed on the target file for different security dimensions. As an example, the file label policy information of the target file includes policy information of four security dimensions: file sensitivity, access user, access process, and the business type to which the file belongs. Among them, the policy information of the sensitivity of the file includes encryption protection for top-secret files. The policy information of the access user includes that users of type U1 have all operation permissions, users of type non-U1 are denied access, users of type U2 have read and write permissions, and users of type U3 have print permissions. The policy information of the access process includes that processes of type P1 have all permissions, and processes of type non-P1 are denied access. The policy information of the business type to which the file belongs restricts the sending of files including financial data to non-financial personnel.

[0100] The access operation information includes that the user type to which the request object belongs is U1 type, and the type of access operation is a read operation. Taking the file label policy information of the above-mentioned target file as an example, the first device determines based on the access operation information and the file label policy information that the request object of type U1 has all operation permissions. The permission policy information of the request object is to have all operation permissions. As another example, the access operation information includes that the user type to which the request object belongs is U3 type, and the type of access operation is a read operation. Taking the file label policy information of the above-mentioned target file as an example, the first device determines based on the access operation information and the file label policy information that the request object of type U3 has the permission for printing operations. The permission policy information of the request object is to have the permission for printing operations.

[0101] In another possible implementation, the first device interacts with the second device to obtain the permission policy information of the request object sent by the second device. Figure 6 As shown, the above S502 specifically includes the following steps:

[0102] S5021: The first device sends a permission request for the target file to the second device, where the permission request includes access operation information, a public key of the request object, and file tag policy information of the target file encrypted by the public key of the target file.

[0103] After obtaining the file access request for the target file, the first device sends a permission request for the target file to the second device. The second device can determine permission information for the request object to access the target file based on the file tag policy information and access operation information of the target file.

[0104] The permission request includes the file tag policy information of the target file, the access operation information included in the file access request, and the public key of the request object. The file tag policy information of the target file is encrypted by the public key of the target file.

[0105] The file label policy information of the target file is determined in advance based on the data protection needs of the target file. The file label policy information of the target file is generated by the first device and protected by encrypting the public key of the target file. The first device does not have the private key corresponding to the public key of the target file, thereby avoiding the decryption of the file label policy information of the target file locally on the first device, and preventing the attacker from using the private key of the target file to decrypt and tamper with the file label policy information after the first device is attacked. This can improve the security of the file label policy information, thereby improving the security of the target file.

[0106] The public key of the target file can be a key set in advance by the owner of the target file, or generated based on the information of the owner of the target file. As an example, the public key of the target file is, for example, the public key of the organization to which the owner of the target file belongs, such as a company or a group, to enable the organization to manage and access the file.

[0107] In addition, the public key of the request object can be a public key preset by the request object. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the generation method of the public key of the request object. As an example, the public key of the request object is generated based on the relevant information of the request object.

[0108] S5022: The second device obtains a permission request for the target file sent by the first device, where the permission request includes access operation information, a public key of the request object, and file tag policy information of the target file encrypted by the first public key.

[0109] S5023: The second device decrypts the file tag policy information using the private key of the target file.

[0110] The private key of the target file is the decryption key of the public key of the target file. The private key of the target file is, for example, a key pre-set by the owner of the target file, or is, for example, a key generated based on the information of the owner of the target file. As an example, the private key of the target file is, for example, the private key of the organization or institution to which the owner of the target file belongs. This makes it easy for organizations and institutions to manage files in a unified manner. The second device uses the private key of the target file to decrypt the file label policy information generated by the first device. The first device does not have the decryption key, which can avoid the problem of decryption key leakage caused by the attack on the first device, thereby improving the security of the file label policy information and thereby improving the security of the target file.

[0111] S5024: The second device determines the permission policy information of the request object based on the file tag policy information and access operation information of the target file.

[0112] The second device obtains the file tag policy information and access operation information of the target file based on the obtained permission request for the target file. The second device can determine the permission policy information related to the access operation information from the file tag policy information of the target file based on the access operation information, and obtain the permission policy information of the request object. The permission policy information of the request object is used to indicate the permission of the request object to operate the target file.

[0113] S5025: The second device encrypts the permission policy information of the request object using the public key of the request object to obtain a first ciphertext.

[0114] After determining the permission policy information of the request object, the second device uses the public key of the request object to encrypt the permission policy information of the request object to obtain the first ciphertext. The encrypted permission policy information of the request object has a high security level and can prevent the permission policy information from being maliciously obtained during the interaction between the second device and the first device to a certain extent.

[0115] S5026: The second device sends permission information including the first ciphertext to the first device.

[0116] S5027: The first device obtains the permission information fed back by the second device.

[0117] S5028: The first device decrypts the first ciphertext using the private key of the request object to obtain the permission policy information of the request object.

[0118] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the generation method of the public key of the request object and the private key of the request object. After obtaining the permission information, the first device uses the private key of the request object to decrypt the first ciphertext included in the permission information to obtain the permission policy information of the request object. The permission policy information of the request object indicates the permission of the request object to operate the target file.

[0119] By using the public key of the target file to encrypt the file label policy information, the security of the file label policy information stored in the first device can be improved. The second device decrypts the file label policy information and analyzes it to obtain the permission policy information. The first device does not need to decrypt the file label policy information locally, which can avoid the risk of an attacker using the decryption key obtained from the first device to maliciously tamper with the file label policy information, thereby improving the security of the file label policy information and further improving the security of the target file.

[0120] S503: The first device performs access control on the request object's access to the target file according to the permission policy information of the request object.

[0121] The first device can determine the permission of the request object to access the target file based on the permission policy information of the request object. The first device performs access control on the request object to access the target file according to the permission policy information of the request object.

[0122] Based on the above S501-S503 related contents, it can be known that fine-grained file label policy information and permission policy information based on files can achieve protection for target files, realize data-centric security protection, improve the protection of data integrity and confidentiality, and to a certain extent reduce the security risks of files being tampered with, leaked and blackmailed.

[0123] In some scenarios, the target file has a confidentiality requirement. The confidentiality requirement of the target file can be configured through the file label policy information of the target file. The first device determines that the target file has a confidentiality requirement based on the file label policy information generated for the target file. The first device encrypts the target file using a file encryption key. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the method for generating the file encryption key. As an example, the file encryption key is a randomly generated symmetric key. The file encryption key corresponds one-to-one to the file to be encrypted. This can improve the security of each file that needs to be encrypted, and can also ensure the security of other files when the file encryption keys of some files are cracked. In one possible implementation method, the file encryption key is encapsulated in the file label policy information of the target file, and the file label policy information of the target file is encrypted using the public key of the target file to protect the file encryption key and the file label policy information.

[0124] In the implementation method in which the second device determines the permission policy information of the request object, after obtaining the file label policy information encrypted by the public key of the target file, the second device uses the private key of the target file to decrypt the file label policy information to obtain the file label policy information and the file encryption key. The second device also uses the public key of the request object to encrypt the file encryption key to obtain the second ciphertext. The second device sends permission information including the first ciphertext and the second ciphertext to the first device. Based on the second ciphertext of the obtained permission information, the first device can use the private key of the request object to decrypt the second ciphertext to obtain the file encryption key. If the first device determines that the request object has access rights to the target file based on the permission policy information, the file encryption key obtained by decrypting the second ciphertext is used to decrypt the target file so that the request object can operate on the target file. In this way, further encryption processing of the target file can be achieved, thereby improving the data security of the target file.

[0125] The above is a method for implementing target file access using the file tag policy information of the target file. The following provides a possible specific implementation method for generating the file tag policy information of the target file.

[0126] See also Figure 7 As shown, the figure is a schematic diagram of a process for generating file tag strategy information of a target file provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0127] The method includes S701-S703:

[0128] S701: The first device obtains a file tag of a target file.

[0129] The file tag of the target file is a tag set for the target file. The file tag includes one or more security dimension tags. It should be noted that the file tag of the target file is determined based on a tag template. The tag template is a template of a pre-set configuration file tag. As an example, the tag template includes multiple selectable file tags. The file tag of the target file is selected from the tag template.

[0130] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the manner of generating a file tag for a target file. In one possible implementation, the generation of a file tag for a target file is triggered by the manager of the target file. The manager of the target file is a user with authority to manage the target file. The manager of the target file is, for example, the owner of the target file. The user can generate a file tag by selection or input. In another possible implementation, the first device automatically generates a file tag based on the file attributes of the target file. File attributes include, for example, file type, file generation time, and file priority. As an example, a file tag for a target file is automatically generated based on a pre-set tag generation rule and the file attributes of the target file. The tag generation rule includes, for example, a correspondence between file attributes and file tags.

[0131] As an example, see Figure 8 As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of a file labeling strategy provided by an embodiment of the present application. The label template includes labels of four security dimensions, namely sensitivity labels, user labels, access process labels, and outbound permission labels. Sensitivity labels include, for example, top secret, confidential, internal, public, and personal. User labels include, for example, U1 type. Access process labels include P1 type. Outbound permission labels include financial data and sales data.

[0132] Based on the user's selection instruction for the file tag, the file tag is determined from the tags included in the tag template, or the file tag is automatically generated based on the tags included in the tag template. For example, see Figure 8 As shown, select Top Confidential Label, U1 Type Label, P1 Type Label, and Financial Data Label from the label templates.

[0133] S703: The first device generates file tag policy information of the target file based on the file tag and the tag policy template.

[0134] The tag policy template is a policy template pre-configured by the tag policy management user. The present application embodiment does not limit the specific content of the tag policy template. As an example, the tag policy template includes policies corresponding to tags of four security dimensions: sensitivity, user, access process, and outbound permissions.

[0135] The tag policy template corresponds to the tag template. The tag policy template includes tag policy information corresponding to each tag included in the tag template.

[0136] See also Figure 8 For example, the label policy template includes label policy information of four security dimensions, including label policy information corresponding to each label included in the label template. Sensitivity policy information includes: 1. Encryption for top secret or confidential files; 2. No encryption for public files; 3. Top secret files are not allowed to be printed or copied; 4. Only the user to whom they belong has the right to use personal files. User policy information includes: 1. U1 type users have all permissions; 2. Other types of users are denied access to top secret and confidential files; for public files, all types of users have all permissions. Access process policy information includes: 1. P1 type processes have all permissions; 2. Other processes are denied access to top secret or confidential files; for public files, all types of processes have all permissions. Outbound permission policy information includes: 1. Financial data can only be sent internally by financial personnel; 2. Public data does not restrict outbound permissions.

[0137] The first device obtains the tag policy information of the file tag of the target file from the tag policy template, integrates the tag policy information of the file tag, and obtains the file tag policy information of the target file.

[0138] As an example, the file tag of the target file is matched with the tag template included in the tag policy template, and the file tag policy information of the tag template consistent with the file tag of the target file is used as the file tag policy information corresponding to the file tag of the target file.

[0139] See also Figure 8 As shown, the first device can determine the file label policy information corresponding to the file label of the target file from the label policy template, that is, the file label policy information of the target file, including: 1. Sensitivity policy information: top secret file encryption; 2. Access user policy information: U1 type users have all permissions, and other types of users are denied access; 3. Access process policy information: P1 type processes have all permissions, and other processes are denied access; 4. Outbound permission policy information: limit outbound sending to non-financial personnel.

[0140] After obtaining the file label policy information of the target file, the first device can encapsulate the file content of the target file, the file label of the target file, and the file label policy information of the target file into a protected file. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the implementation method of encapsulating files. As an example, the file content of the target file, the file label of the target file, and the file label policy information of the target file are encapsulated into one file. As another example, the file content of the target file, the file label of the target file, and the file label policy information of the target file are respectively encapsulated into three interrelated files. The file label policy information of the target file can be encrypted by the first public key.

[0141] Based on the above S701 and S703, it can be known that the file label and file label policy information that meet the data security requirements of the target file can be configured more flexibly to achieve fine-grained security protection for the file and meet the security requirements of different files and access files for different object types. In addition, the file label policy information can be configured using file labels and label policy templates to improve the efficiency of configuring the file label policy information.

[0142] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the source of the label policy template.

[0143] In a possible implementation, the tag policy template is pre-configured in the first device.

[0144] In another possible implementation, the tag policy template is obtained by the first device from the second device. Figure 7 As shown, the method can also include S7021-S7023.

[0145] S7021: The first device sends a label policy template acquisition request to the second device.

[0146] The tag policy template acquisition request is used to obtain the tag policy template. The tag policy template is a policy template pre-configured by the tag policy management user. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific content included in the tag policy template. As an example, the tag policy template includes policies corresponding to tags of four security dimensions: sensitivity, access user, access process, and outbound permissions.

[0147] S7022: In response to obtaining the label policy template acquisition request sent by the first device, the second device sends the label policy template to the first device.

[0148] The second device stores the tag policy template.

[0149] S7023: The first device obtains the label policy template sent by the second device.

[0150] Furthermore, based on the file tag policy information generated based on the tag policy template, the file tag policy information can also be customized and adjusted.

[0151] See also Fig. 9 As shown, this figure is a schematic diagram of another process of generating file tag strategy information of a target file provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method is applied to a first device and a second device, and in addition to the above S701-S703, further includes S704 and S705.

[0152] S704: The first device obtains custom tag policy information for the target file.

[0153] In a possible implementation, the first device displays an editing control for editing the file tag policy information. The user can input custom tag policy information for the target file through the editing control. The custom tag policy information includes, for example, additional tag policy information. Figure 8 Taking the file label policy information of the target file shown as an example, the additional label policy information includes the newly added access user policy information: U2 type users have read permission and write permission, U3 type users have read permission, write permission and print permission, P2 type processes have read-only permission, and P3 type processes have read permission and write permission. Custom label policy information also includes modified label policy information. The modified label policy information includes the label policy information that needs to be modified for the file label policy information of the target file, as well as the modified label policy information.

[0154] S705: The first device updates the file label policy information of the target file using the custom label policy information.

[0155] In this way, the target file can be flexibly adjusted based on the rapid configuration of the file label policy information of the target file, so that the generated file label policy information of the target file is more in line with the data security requirements of the target file.

[0156] In addition, in the storage scenario, see Figure 4a As shown, the first device is a storage device. The storage device is connected to a third device. The third device is, for example, a production host. The production host is a host connected to the storage device and capable of accessing data stored in the storage device. The storage device and the production host interact through a security protocol. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of security protocol. As an example, the security protocol is a Network Attached Storage (NAS) protocol, or an Object Storage Service (OBS) protocol.

[0157] In a possible implementation, the request object uses a third device connected to the first device to access the file. The request object triggers a file access request for the target file on the third device. The third device encapsulates the file access request using a security protocol. The third device sends the encapsulated file access request to the first device. The first device unpacks the obtained file access request using the security protocol.

[0158] In addition, when performing access control on the target file accessed by the request object according to the permission policy information of the request object, the first device generates feedback file information according to the permission policy information of the request object and the access operation information of the request object. The first device sends the feedback file information encapsulated by the security protocol to the third device. The third device obtains the feedback file information and unpacks the feedback file information by using the security protocol.

[0159] By using the security protocol to encapsulate and decapsulate the information exchanged between the first device and the third device, the security of the interaction between the first device and the third device can be improved, and the security requirements for accessing files can be met.

[0160] In the process of configuring the file tag policy information of the target file for the file of the storage device, the file tag of the target file can be generated by the user of the third device or automatically triggered by the third device. The third device uses the security protocol to encapsulate the file tag of the target file and sends the encapsulated file tag of the target file to the first device. The first device obtains the file tag of the target file encapsulated by the security protocol.

[0161] The first device decapsulates the file tag of the encapsulated target file using the security protocol to obtain the file tag of the target file.

[0162] The present application also provides a file access device 1000, which is applied to a first device, such as Fig.10 As shown, including:

[0163] an acquisition module, configured to acquire a file access request for a target file triggered by a request object, wherein the file access request includes access operation information, and the access operation information is used to describe the access operation that the request object needs to perform on the target file; the request object is a system user of an operating system program of the first device, or an application user of an application program;

[0164] A processing module is used to obtain the permission policy information of the request object, the permission policy information is determined based on the file label policy information of the target file and the file access request; the file label policy information corresponds to the file label of the target file, the file label policy information is used to describe the control policy for the access operation on the target file, and the permission policy information is used to indicate the permission of the request object to operate the target file; the file label includes one or more security dimension labels, and the file label is set by the administrator of the target file or generated based on the file attributes of the target file;

[0203] The processor 1204 may include any one or more of a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), a microprocessor (MP), or a digital signal processor (DSP).

In other words, the combination of one or more computing devices 1200 may jointly execute instructions for executing the method for determining file access permissions.
