6.12. To Learn More

Date [DAT81] addresses general topics of database management, and the second volume [DAT83] covers recovery, integrity, concurrency, and security (secrecy). Fernandez et al. [FER81] also cover basic security issues for databases. The state of the art is surveyed by Lunt and Fernandez [LUN90] and Schaefer [SCH90a].

The inference problem dates back at least to [HOF70]. Denning and Schlörer [DEN83a] and Smith [SMI88b] survey the problems and controls for inference in databases. Burns [BUR90] raises an issue of the secrecy/integrity tradeoff. Lunt [LUN89] clarifies several issues regarding aggregation and inference. Adam and Wortmann [ADA89] cover statistical databases, and Denning et al. [DEN79b] describe tracker attacks. Access control is first proposed by Stonebraker and Wong [STO74].

The best description of the multilevel security problem for databases is [AFS83], the "Wood's Hole" report of the Air Force Studies Board of the National Academy of Sciences. Multilevel security issues for databases have been explored by Denning [DEN85, DEN86, and DEN87a], Lunt [LUN90a], and Graubert [GRA84b, GRA85].
