Autonomous Multilevel Policy Based Security Configuration in Distributed Database
نویسندگان
چکیده
The rapid growth of information technology and networking expands the business globally. All the data related to business is stored and managed in centralized or distributed manner. Database provides inbuilt security to manage different levels of data but if we apply overall security from accessing the different levels of user’s data to different levels of users, it will increase implementation complexity and also hamper the normal function of the database server. In this paper, a multilevel policy based security scheme for distributed database has been proposed which uses Access Control List to restrict the users from accessing the data at different levels of security. It can configure access policies to restrict the user access to the local or remote resources.

Security issues for federated database systems
This paper describes security issues for federated database management systems set up for managing distributed, heterogeneous and autonomous multilevel databases. It builds on our previous work in multilevel secure distributed database management systems and on the results of others’ work in federated database systems. In particular, we define a multilevel secure federated database system and d...
متن کاملSecurity Constraint Processing in a Multilevel Secure Distributed Database Management System
In a multilevel secure distributed database management system, users cleared at different security levels access and share a distributed database consisting of data at different sensitivity levels. An approach to assigning sensitivity levels, also called security levels, to data is one which utilizes constraints or classification rules. Security constraints provide an effective classification p...
متن کاملMultilevel security issues in distributed database management systems II
The rapid growth of the networking and information-processing industries has led to the development of distributed database management system prototypes and commercial distributed database management systems. In such a system, the database is stored in several computers which are interconnected by some communication media. The aim of a distributed database management system (DDBMS) is to proces...
متن کاملAnalysis of Challenges in the Design and Development of Multi-Level Secure Databases
Database security mainly deal with the secrecy, integrity and availability of data stored in a database. The common threats to the databases involve Privilege Abuse, Weak Authentication, Weak Audit Trails and Operating System Vulnerabilities. To make the security least compromised; all users are required to follow the rules set up by Database Administrator. These rules are said to be Mandatory ...
متن کاملSelf-protecting Objects in Multipolicy Federated Databases: A Prototype
A multipolicy secure federated database is a distributed database that allows the various sites to implement different security policies. The policy of a site is then enforced by all sites for data owned by this site. This paper describes a proof of concept prototype of such a multipolicy secure federated database. The prototype implements a multilevel federal security policy—that is a policy t...
