In the case of wearable nodes, and especially in the context of e-Health applications, the security issues are exacerbated by the direct interaction with the human body and the associated safety and privacy concerns. This work presents a policy-based, unified, cross-platform and flexible access control framework. It adopts a web services-compliant approach to enable secure and authorized fine-grained access control to body sensor network resources and services. The proposed scheme specifically considers the very limited resources of so-called nano nodes that are anticipated to be used in such an environment. A proof-of-concept implementation is developed and a preliminary performance evaluation is presented. %G English %Z TC 11 %Z WG 11.2 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01400937/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01400937/file/978-3-662-43826-8_11_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01400937 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01400937 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC11 %~ IFIP-WISTP %~ IFIP-WG11-2 %~ IFIP-LNCS-8501
