Computer Security and Networking Protocols: Technical Issues in Military Data Communications Networks
Rona B. Stillman, C. Defiore · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 1980
Two problems which limit information sharing among computers are fear of compromise of sensitive data (through accidental disclosure or theft), and designing networking protocols which support effective interconnection of heterogeneous systems. These problems are presented in the context of defense systemsapproaches to their solution are discussed-and issues and open questions which must be addressed in the future are identified.
