Information assurance applications providing
Multi-Level Secure
(MLS) solutions must often implement information flow policies that are
conditional
in the sense that data is allowed to flow between system components only when the system satisfies certain state predicates. However, existing specification and verification environments, such as SPARK, used to develop such applications, are capable of capturing only unconditional information flows. Motivated by the need to better formally specify and certify MLS applications in industrial contexts, we present an enhancement of the SPARK system that enables specification, inference, and compositional checking of conditional information flow contracts. We report on the use of this framework for a collection of SPARK examples.
