Abstract

This paper presents an approach for extending the Circus formalism to accommodate information flow security concerns. Working with the semantics of Circus, we introduce a notation for specifying which aspects of Circus processes are confidential and should not be revealed to low-level users. We also describe a novel procedure for verifying that a process satisfies its confidentiality properties.
