Title
A Multi-Purpose Implementation of Mandatory Access Control in Relational Database Management Systems
Abstract
Abstract Mandatory Access Control (MAC) implemen - tations in Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) have focused solely on Multilevel Security (MLS) MLS has posed a number of challenging problems to the database research community, and there has been an abundance of research work to ad - dress those problems Unfortunately, the use of MLS RDBMS has been restricted to a few government organizations where MLS is of paramount importance such as the intelligence community and the Department of Defense The implication of this is that the investment of building an MLS RDBMS cannot be lever - aged to serve the needs of application domains where there is a desire to control access to ob - jects based on the label associated with that object and the label associated with the sub - ject accessing that object, but where the label access rules and the label structure do not nec - essarily match the MLS two security rules and the MLS label structure This paper intro - duces a flexible and generic implementation of MAC in RDBMS that can be used to address the requirements from a variety of application domains, as well as to allow an RDBMS to ef - ficiently take part in an end - to - end MAC en - terprise solution The paper also discusses the extensions made to the SQL compiler compo - nent of an RDBMS to incorporate the label
