Abstract
Using the information transfer extensions to the Take-Grant Protection Model, the
concept of “theft of information” is defined and necessary and sufficient
conditions for such theft to occur are presented, as well as bounds on the number of
actors involved in such theft. Finally the application of these results to reference
monitors are explored.
