Abstract

When several databases with multilevel security policies are federated to form a tightly coupled federated database management system, heterogeneities such as different accreditation ranges must be overcome. This paper describes an extended methodology to integrate policies that use different lattices as accreditation ranges. A semi-automatic process obtains the federated accreditation range and needed translation functions among accreditation ranges in order to be validated by the security administrator.
