A unifying Petri net model of non-interference and non-deducibility information flow security

In this paper we introduce FIFO Information Flow Nets (FIFN) as a model for describing information flow security properties. The FIFN is based on Petri nets and has been derived from the work described in [Var89], [Var90] and [Rou86]. Using this new model, we present the information flow security properties Non-Interference between Places (which corresponds to Non-Interference) and Non-Deducibility on Views (which corresponds to Non-Deducibility on Inputs). Then we consider a very general composition operation and show that neither Non-Interference on Places nor Non-Deducibility on Views is preserved under this composition operation. This leads us to a new definition of information flow security referred to as the Feedback Non-Deducibility on Views. We then show that this definition is preserved under the composition operation. This leads us to a new definition of information flow security referred to as the Feedback Non-Deducibility on Views. We then show that this definition is preserved under the composition operation. We then show some similarities between this property and the notion of Non-Deducibility on Strategies

SMOQE: A System for Providing Secure Access to XML

XML views have been widely used to enforce access control, support data integration, and speed up query answering. In many applications, e.g., XML security enforcement, it is prohibitively expensive to materialize and maintain a large number of views. Therefore, views are necessarily virtual. An immediate question then is how to answer queries on XML virtual views. A common approach is to rewrite a query on the view to an equivalent one on the underlying document, and evaluate the rewritten query. This is the approach used in the Secure MOdular Query Engine (SMOQE). The demo presents SMOQE, the first system to provide efficient support for answering queries over virtual and possibly recursively defined XML views. We demonstrate a set of novel techniques for the specification of views, the rewriting, evaluation and optimization of XML queries. Moreover, we provide insights into the internals of the engine by a set of visual tools. 1
