Abstract
Distributed object systems are increasingly popular, and considerable effort is being expended
to develop standards for interaction between objects. Some high-level requirements for secure
distributed object interactions have been identified. However, there are no guidelines for
developing the secure objects themselves. Some aspects of object-oriented design do not
translate directly to traditional methods of developing secure systems. In this paper, we
identify features of object oriented design that affect secure system development. In addition,
we explore ways to derive security, and provide techniques for developing secure COTS libraries
with easily modifiable security policies.
