Abstract:
Computer security policy plays a fundamental role in the definition and enforcement
of the security system. Unfortunately there is no widely used method for representing
and reasoning about the different types of security policies that exist. This has led
to ambiguity and inconsistency when referring to the security policy of a system. We
attempt to resolve this ambiguity by introducing the Unifying Policy HierarchyModel.
This model describes the relationship between four distinct types of policies that exist
for a system. This model also illustrates the role that each of those policies play in
the overall security of the system. The result of this research is the introduction of a
number of formal definitions and relationships, which will clarify and facilitate policy
research.
