A key assignment scheme is a cryptographic technique for implementing an information flow policy, sometimes known as hierarchical access control. All the research to date on key ...
In a hierarchical structure, a user in a security class has access to information items of another class if and only if the former class is a predecessor of latter. Based upon cry...
In hierarchical distributed systems, shared data access can be controlled by assigning user groups single cryptographic keys that allow high level users derive low level keys, but...
