Outline for February 6, 2002

Reading: ß6.1, 6.2 (not including ß6.2.1 and ß6.2.2), ß6.4

1.	Greetings and Felicitations!

2.	Puzzle of the day

3.	Biba: mathematical dual of BLP

a.	P may read O if L(P)  L(O) and C(P) ¹ C(O)

b.	P may write O if L(O)  L(P) and C(O) ¹ C(P)

c.	Combined with BLP: continue example

4.	Clark-Wilson

a.	Theme: military model does not provide enough controls for commercial fraud, etc. because it does not 
cover the right aspects of integrity

b.	Data items: "Constrained Data Items" (CDI) to which the model applies,  "Unconstrained Data Items (UDIs) 
to which no integrity checks are applied, "Integrity Verification Procedures" (IVP) that verify conformance 
to the integrity spec when IVP is run, "Transaction Procedures" (TP) takes system from one well-formed 
state to another

c.	Certification and enforcement rules:
C1. All IVPs must ensure that all CDIs are in a valid state when the IVP is run
C2. All TPs must be certified to be valid, and each TP is assocated with a set of CDIs it is authorized to 
manipulate
E1. The system must maintain these lists and must ensure only those TPs manipulate those CDIs
E2: The system must maintain a list of User IDs, TP, and CDIs that that TP can manipulate on behalf of that 
user, and must ensure only those executions are performed.
C3. The list of relations in E2 must be certified to meet the separation of duty requirement.
E3. The sysem must authenticate the identity of each user attempting to execute  a TP.
C4. All TPs must be certified to write to an append-only CDI (the log) all information necessary to reson-
struct the operation.
C5. Any TP taking a UDI as an input must be certified to perform only valid transformations, else no trans-
formations, for any possible value of the UDI. The transformation should take the input from a UDI to a 
CDI, or the UDI is  rejected (typically, for edits as the keyboard is a UDI).
E4. Only the agent permitted to certify entities may change the list of such  entities associated with a TP. An 
agent that can certify an entity may not have any execute rights with respect to that entity
