Panel Chair: Daniel Faigin, Aerospace Corporation

Panelists:

• Daniel Faigin, Aerospace Corporation

Abstract:

The creation of the TCSEC, and the development of its associated mind set, organizations, procedures and infrastructure, were the most influential computer security events of the 20th century. On the 30th anniversary of publication of the Orange Book, ACSAC has assembled a panel of experts who have lived the paradigm and experienced its many strengths and weaknesses from different perspectives (creator, evaluator, developer, user). Holding to the tradition of the ACSAC Classic Papers session, they will review the history and explore the legacy. Many of the ACSAC attendees have been there, too. Expect lively and insightful exchanges!
