Abstract

Most organizations currently build customized security policies by extending the principles and guidelines suggested by generic security policies. This method cannot guarantee that the resulting policies are compatible, neither it can ensure that the resulting protection levels are equivalent. We introduce a Security Policies Repository (SPR), which consists of a knowledge base, storing multiple security policies in a structured way. The SPR facilitates the juxtaposition of security policies, in order to detect, analyze, and resolve conflicts, and to compare and negotiate the protection level of each of the co- operating information systems. Reconciliation of security policies is achieved by means of developing mutually accepted meta-policies.
