(** * Security policies *)
Section Policy.

(** In order to define the notion of security, we assume a type [domain] of security domains. Those can be, e.g. clearance levels. For each action [a] we assign a domain [dom a] of that action. For instance, if we interpret domains as clearance levels, the domain of an action can signify the clearance level required to observe/preform the action.

A *security policy* is defined to be a reflexive decidable relation on the type of domains. For instance, the policy relation can state that the clearance level [u] is below the clearance level [v]. *)
Class Policy (domain : Type) := {
  dom : action -> domain;

  (** Sidenote: I had a lot of issues with Coq not finding relevant
  typeclass instances because the next field was declared as
  [domain_dec : TYPE] instead of [domain_dec :> TYPE]. So we actually
  do need implicit coercions to get automatic resolution of typeclass
  instances. *)

  domain_dec :> forall (x y : domain), Decision (x = y);
  policy :> relation domain;
  policy_dec :> (forall v w, Decision (policy v w));
  policy_refl :> Reflexive policy
}.

(** Quoting Rushby: 

<<
     We wish to define security in terms of information flow, so the
     next step is to capture the idea of the "flow of information"
     formally. The key observation is that information can be said to
     flow from a domain [u] to a domain [v] exactly when the acions
     submitted by domain [u] cause the behavior of the system
     percieved by domain [v] to be different from that perceived when
     those actions are not present.
>>

Hence, we define a function [purge] that removes from the given list
all the actions that are not supposed to "influence" the domain [v].
*)

Fixpoint purge `{Policy domain} (ls : list action) (v : domain) : list action :=
  match ls with
    | [] => []
    | a::tl => if (decide (dom a ⇝ v)) then a::(purge tl v)
               else purge tl v
  end.


(** Then, the system is _secure_ w.r.t. a given policy if for any set
of actions that can be performed, the system cannot tell the
difference between preforming the given actions and only performing
the actions that are supposed to influence the outcome *)

Definition security `{Policy domain} := forall (ls : list action) (a : action),
   test ls a = test (purge ls (dom a)) a.


End Policy.

(** * View partitions

As we have seen, the non-interference notion of security is defined by
quantifying over all the possible paths of the system. We wish to
develop techniques for establishing the security property by putting
conditions on individual state transformations.

As a first step, we define a notion of a "view partition", which is an
equivalence relation on the type of states of the system, siginfying
that two states are "identitcal" or indistinguishable for a given
domain.

*)

Section view_partitions.

(** Formally, a view partition is an assignment of an equivalence
relation [≈{u}] for every domain [u] *)
  
Class ViewPartition (domain : Type) := {
  view_partition :> domain -> relation state;
  view_partition_is_equiv :> forall v, Equivalence (view_partition v)
}.

Notation "S ≈{ U } T" := (view_partition U S T)
                           (at level 70, format "S  ≈{ U }  T") : policy_scope.
Open Scope policy_scope.
(** We say that a system is _output consistent_ if for every two
states [s, t] that are indistinguishable w.r.t. the domain [dom a],
the output of the system [output s a] is the same as [output t a] *)

Class OutputConsistent `{P : Policy domain} `(ViewPartition domain) := 
  output_consistent : (forall a s t, s ≈{dom a} t -> output s a = output t a).

(** Our first lemma states that if we have a view partitioned system
that is output consistent and satisfies

[[(do_actions ls) ≈{u} (do_actions (purge ls u))]]

then the system is secure. *)

(* Lemma 1 *)
Lemma output_consist_security `{P : Policy domain} `{VP : ViewPartition domain} {OC : @OutputConsistent domain P VP} : (forall ls u,
  (do_actions ls) ≈{u} (do_actions (purge ls u)))
  -> security.
Proof.
  intros L ls a.  apply output_consistent.
  apply (L _ (dom a)).
Qed.

(** Note that the conditions of Lemma [output_consist_security] still
require us to quantify over all possible paths of the system. We wish
to replace this condition with the following two "local" conditions.

The first condition, stating that the view partitioned system _locally
respects policy_: if the domain [dom a] is not suppose to interfere
with the domain [u], then, from the point of view of [u], the states
[s] and [step s a] are indistinguishable.
*)

Definition locally_respects_policy `{Policy domain} `{ViewPartition domain} := forall a u s,

(** We say that the system is *step consistent*, if the view partition
is closed under the [step] function. *)

Definition step_consistent `{Policy domain} `{ViewPartition domain} := forall a s t u,
  s ≈{u} t -> (step s a) ≈{u} (step t a).

(** Given those two conditions we can prove that the system is secure,
by applying the previous lemma *)

(** * Access control interpretation of the view partition.  *)

Section ACI.

(** In this section we consider a formalisation of the access control mechansisms. 

We say that the machine has _structured state_ if we have a collection
of [name]s and [value]s (the latter being decidable), and some sort of
the memory assigned to each state, which is formally given by the
[contents] function. For each domain [u] we assign sets [observe u]
and [alter u] of names that are allowed to be observed and altered,
respectively, by the domain [u]. *)

Class StructuredState (domain : Type)  := {
  name : Type;
  value : Type;
  contents : state -> name -> value;
  value_dec :> forall (v1 v2 : value), Decision (v1 = v2);
  observe : domain -> FinSet name;
  alter : domain -> FinSet name
}.

(** This induces the view partition relation as follows: two state [s]
and [t] are indistinguishable for the given domain, if all the
observable contents at [s] is the same as the observable content at
[t] *)

Definition RMA_partition `{@StructuredState domain} (u : domain) s t := (forall n,  (n ∈ observe u) -> contents s n = contents t n).

(** The reference mointor assumptions provide the security for the system, if, furthermore, two additional requirements are satisfied:

- [u ~> v] implies [observe u ⊆ observe v]; that is, if [u] is supposed to interfere with [v], then [v] can observe at least as much as [u]
- if [n ∈ alter u] and [n ∈ observe v], then [u ~> v]; that is, if [u] is allowed to alter a location that is observable by [v], then [u] is allowed to interfere with [v]
