A Language-Based Approach to Security
Abstract
Language based security leverages program analysis and program rewriting to enforce security policies. The approach promises efficient enforcement of fine grained access control policies and depends on a trusted computing base of only modest size. This paper surveys progress and prospects for the area giving overviews of in-lined reference monitors, certifying compilers, and advances in type theory.
