Enforcing Protection Mechanisms for Geographic Data

  • Conference paper
Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems (W2GIS 2012)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 7236))

Abstract

In the framework of a geographic application displaying maps, there are several solutions for protecting a sensitive object. Sensitive objects can be hidden, masked, blurred or even replaced by fake objects. In this paper we suggest a framework to specify protection mechanisms to enforce whenever a prohibition is derived from the security policy. This framework includes (i) logical rules allowing us to derive protection mechanisms from prohibitions, and (ii) an algorithm which builds the map to display, according to the derived protection mechanisms.
