Summary :

The access control method adopted by UNIX is simple, understandable, and useful. However, it is quite possible that unexpected information flows occur when we are cooperating with some group members on UNIX. Introducing notions such as "flow right," "maximal permission" and "minimal umask value", this note proposes a simple method, can be seen as a natural extension of UNIX, to control indirect information flows without losing availability and understandability of UNIX.
