Abstract

With the advent of computer systems which share the resources of the configuration among several users or several problems, there is the risk that information from one user (or computer program) will be coupled to another user (or program). In many cases, the information in question will bear a military classification or be sensitive for some reason, and safeguards must be provided to guard against the leakage of information. This session is concerned with accidents or deliberate attempts which divulge computer-resident information to unauthorized parties.
