MILS workshop 2017
Date: 14th of March, 2017
Location: Nuremberg, Gemany
Workshop description
MILS is a high-assurance security architecture based on the concepts of separation and controlled information flow. The MILS architectural approach is all about decomposition of a system design into well-understood components and their interactions with the goal to achieve composable architecture and composable assurance for the designed system.
The composability of architecture and assurance for secure systems is a grand challenge, which we undertake to meet using the MILS architectural approach.
Architecture composition defines a secure system from trustworthy components and system architecture. The MILS framework for composable architecture is based on a separation kernel (which has overlapping functionality with a hypervisor) that creates partitions to separate different security domains. Such a separation kernel often needs to support real-time because there are many use-cases in embedded systems.
Assurance composition targets creating an assurance argument for the overall system from arguments of its components and the system’s security architecture. The workshop also welcomes contributions on the industrial application of the MILS architecture, assurance and certification frameworks, attack methods and templates for MILS systems, as well as presenting the MILS community.
