Abstract

A general framework is developed in which various mandatory access control security models that allow changes in security levels can be formalized. These models form a Boolean algebra. The framework is expanded to include models that allow n-person rules necessary for discretionary access controls in an industrial security setting. The resulting framework is a distributive lattice. >
