In database applications, access control security layers are mostly developed from tools provided by vendors of database management systems and deployed in the same servers containing the data to be protected. This solution conveys several drawbacks. Among them we emphasize: (1) if policies are complex, their enforcement can lead to performance decay of database servers; (2) when modifications in the established policies implies modifications in the business logic (usually deployed at the client-side), there is no other possibility than modify the business logic in advance and, finally, 3) malicious users can issue CRUD expressions systematically against the DBMS expecting to identify any security gap. In order to overcome these drawbacks, in this paper we propose an access control stack characterized by: most of the mechanisms are deployed at the client-side; whenever security policies evolve, the security mechanisms are automatically updated at runtime and, finally, client-side applications do not handle CRUD expressions directly. We also present an implementation of the proposed stack to prove its feasibility. This paper presents a new approach to enforce access control in database applications, this way expecting to contribute positively to the state of the art in the field.

This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of using the dynamics of intrapreneurship to develop a new generation performance management model based on the structural dynamics of the Balanced Score Card approach. The literature survey covered entrepreneurship, from which the construct, intrapreneurship, was synthesized. Reconstructive logic and Hermeneutic methodology were used in studying the performance management systems and the Balanced Score Card approach. The dynamics were then integrated into a new approach for the management of performance of intrapreneurial employees in the corporate environment. An unstructured opinion survey followed: a sample of intrapreneurship students evaluated and validated the model’s conceptual feasibility and probable practical value.

Los Alamos National Laboratory is a large science- and technology-based organization that has recently undertaken a major reengineering effort in an attempt to maintain its competitiveness in a rapidly changing world. Although the initial thrust was toward altering processes, management systems, and culture, it was decided that a major reorganization was needed as well. Along with the reorganization came a flattening of the management hierarchy and an almost complete change in the composition of the senior management group. This restructuring has had profound effects on the organization, requiring a new approach to management by the senior executives, and, at least initially, has swamped process and systems changes that will ultimately determine the success or failure of the effort. This paper documents the journey – how the structure and behaviors of the senior management group had to change to work in the new environment, trickle-down effects of reorganization, levels of decision-making, integrating processes and systems, and communicating with employees – and identifies some lessons learned that might be useful to other large technical organizations contemplating such changes.
