Information Flow Security in Dynamic Contexts
We study a security property for processes in dynamic contexts, i.e., contexts that can be reconfigured at runtime. The security property that we propose in this paper, named Per...

Closing Internal Timing Channels by Transformation
Abstract. A major difficulty for tracking information flow in multithreaded programs is due to the internal timing covert channel. Information is leaked via this channel when secre...

Achieving Information Flow Security through Precise Control of Effects
This paper advocates a novel approach to the construction of secure software: controlling information flow and maintaining integrity via monadic encapsulation of effects. This ap...

Quantitative Analysis of Secure Information Flow via Probabilistic Semantics
We present an automatic analyzer for measuring information flow within software systems. In this paper, we quantify leakage in terms of information theory and incorporate this comp...
