Cerberus

Cerberus: Django plugin suite for access control in cohorte management platforms

Presentation

Cerberus is a new access control scheme spanning the whole life-cycle of access rights. Cerberus enables switching from a dual world, where CSP data can be accessed either from the very users who entered it or fully de-identified, to an access-when-required world, where patient, practitioners and research can access focused medical data through explicit authorization by the data owner.

Efficient access control requires application specific access rights as well as the ability to restrict these rights when they are not used. Cerberus covers the whole life-cycle of access right management: design, implementation, deployment and maintenance, operations.

Project context

Cerberus is implemented and evaluated in the context of the https://genida.unistra.fr/, an international cohort study platform for Genetically determined Intellectual Disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorders.
