Static Mandatory Access Control in Haskell

Latest on Hackage:0.1.3.0@rev:1

This package is not currently in any snapshots. If you're interested in using it, we recommend adding it to Stackage Nightly. Doing so will make builds more reliable, and allow stackage.org to host generated Haddocks.

The MAC library implements Mandatory Access Control concepts in Haskell. It leverages Haskell type-system to restrict how data gets propagated within programs and ensures that sensitive data cannot be leaked by malicious or buggy code. The library enables untrusted code, i.e., code written by someone else, to securely manipulate sensitive data while preserving its confidentiality.

The library provides secure versions of advance programming languages features like references, exceptions, and concurrency. This package is the accompanying code for the paper Functional Pearl: Two can keep a secret, if one of them uses Haskell.
