Secure access to data over the Internet

Abstract
Security issues are the major roadblock currently preventing greater access to databases over the Internet. In this paper, we propose a framework for secure access to databases by a wide audience over the Internet, using World Wide Web information servers, a modified version of the NCSA Mosaic Internet browser and role wrappers (software modules that assign roles to incoming database requests, based on the credentials submitted with the request). We also describe an application embodying this framework.
