All these solutions are equally viable, with no single solution being better or worse than the others. READ MORE

7. 5. An Information Flow Approach to Fault-Tolerant Security and Information Erasure

   Author : Filippo Del Tedesco; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fault Tolerance; Information Erasure; Information flow security;

   Abstract : Sensitive information is a crucial asset for both individuals and companies. Since it is processed in a largely automated way, it is important that the computational infrastructures are equipped with methods for reasoning about and enforcing security policies. Information flow security has been proposed for this purpose in many contexts. READ MORE
