- (Abstract) Open networks can be used for many purposes: e-commerce and e-government, for example. Different from those conventional applications, we consider networked collaborative activities such as networked research activities. This application might be very useful and research activities could be significantly promoted. However, we must solve many security problems. Among those problems, we focus on an architecture of a secure database in this paper. The design of such an architecture is not a trivial task. Firstly, we want to use multiple data types in terms of security management. Secondly, we want to execute appropriate security operations in an ensured order (e.g. signature-then-encryption). In addition, some data may need multiple security properties, and hence related multiple security operations must be executed in a well-organized way. This paper describes an architecture of a secure database for tackling these issues.
