    • Design rules:
      1. Economy of mechanism: Keep the design as simple and small as possible.
      2. Fail-safe defaults: Base access decisions on permission rather than exclusion.
      3. Complete mediation: Every access to every object must be checked for authority.
      4. Open design: The design should not be secret.
      5. Separation of privilege: Where feasible, a protection mechanism that requires two keys to unlock it is more robust and flexible than one that allows access to the presenter of only a single key.
      6. Least privilege: Every program and every user of the system should operate using the least set of privileges necessary to complete the job.
      7. Least common mechanism: Minimize the amount of mechanism common to more than one user and depended on by all users.
      8. Psychological acceptability: It is essential that the human interface be designed for ease of use, so that users routinely and automatically apply the protection mechanisms correctly-
      9. Work factor: Compare the cost of circumventing the mechanism with the resources of a potential attacker. The cost of circumventing, commonly known as the “work factor,” in some cases can be easily calculated.
      10. Compromise recording: It is sometimes suggested that mechanisms that reliably record that a compromise of information has occurred can be used in place of more elaborate mechanisms that completely prevent loss.
