An Approach For Building Secure Database Federations

Summary: Secure database federations: access-control in tightly coupled architectures, with issues tied to federation design and heterogeneity. Advances authorization autonomy, independent reference-monitor interactions, and global-layer mechanisms that map to weaker component DBMS controls. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
