databases and will implement a prototype to be used to perform a
series of experiments to measure the performance cost for applying
the concurrency control in multilevel relational databases.
his topic will also deine the implementation of the data manip-
ulation operations for the instance-based multilevel security model
(IBMSM) since the IBMSM proposes two layers: the instance layer
and the class layer.
1.5 Book Organization
• In Chapter 2, the basic concept of multilevel relational data-
base security will be discussed. This chapter will explain the
models that support multilevel database security and will
introduce a comparative study between the multilevel data-
base security models.
• In Chapter 3, the implementation of multilevel relational
database security models will be illustrated and the perfor-
mance study will be instrumented to compare the multilevel
secure database (MLS/DBMS) models.
• In Chapter 4, an overview of the encryption algorithms that
are applied will be presented.
• In Chapter 5, the encryption-based multilevel security data-
base model will be described and the implementation of a
working prototype to be used as a research tool for studying
principles and mechanisms of the model will be explored.
• In Chapter 6, the formal model for the data manipula-
tion operations in the encryption-based multilevel security
database model will be presented and the mathematical proofs
of soundness, completeness, and security will be proved.
• In Chapter 7, the concept of concurrency control in multilevel
security for relational databases will be introduced.
• In Chapter 8, the implementation of the data manipulation
operations for the instance-based multilevel security model
(IBMSM) will be defined.
• In Chapter 9, the C# and Microsoft SQL server source codes
for the implementation of multilevel relational database secu-
rity models will be presented.
