Sieve: A Middleware Approach to Scalable Access Control for Database Management Systems
Summary: Sieve is a middleware layer for scalable FGAC, pruning thousands of policies using query context and generating grouped, index-aware guarded expressions. It enables real-time policy enforcement in existing DBMSs for smart spaces and GDPR/CCPA-driven data sharing. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
