Clark-Wilson Model

The Clark-Wilson Model is a framework designed to keep data secure by ensuring it is handled properly. It emphasizes that only authorized people can perform specific, well-defined actions on data, and these actions must follow set rules. The model uses "integrity" principles to make sure data remains accurate and trustworthy, such as requiring things to be done through controlled, verified processes (“transactions”). This approach helps prevent errors or malicious changes, ensuring data stays reliable and secure within a system.
