The SMITE Approach to Security

Abstract

SMITE is a novel computer architecture implementing a new security policy model. It is proposed as the best available technology which may be used to develop information systems for operational use where high assurance of complex confidentiality and integrity based security policies is required. This report records the results of work carried out by Retix Systems for CCI division RSRE. This contract provided a peer review of their architecture proposals, characterised the essential architecture elements and formulated the security oriented top level model. In this way it provided a baseline definition of SMITE to aid the future way forward for the project. Great Britain.
