Separation of duty in role-based environments
Abstract
The separation of duty is a principle that has a long history in computer security research. Many computing systems provide rudimentary support for this principle, but often the support is inconsistent with the way the principle is applied in non-computing environments. Furthermore, there appears to be no single accepted meaning of the term. We examine the ways in which separation of duty has been used, adding the notion of history-based separation of duty. We assess ways in which computing systems may support separation of duty. We discuss the mechanisms we are implementing to support separation of duty and roles in Adage, a general-purpose authorization language and toolkit.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
