Declarative policies are a common means to manage the security of complex IT environments and they belong to different, heterogeneous classes (access control, filtering, data protection, etc.). Their enforcement requires the selection and configuration of appropriate enforcement mechanisms whose dependencies in a given environment may result in conflicts typically not foreseeable at policy design time. Such conflicts may cause security vulnerabilities and non compliance; their identification and correction is costly. Detecting transversal policy conflicts, i.e., conflicts happening across different policy classes, constitutes a challenging problem, and this work makes a step forward towards its formalization. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
