The intent of this project is to show that data centric security can be achieved by implementing parts of an open standard. The standard used is the Information Exchange Framework Reference Architecture [IEFRA] by the Object Management Group (OMG), which is an open standard available to everyone. Development involved implementing several key parts of the IEF. A Packaging and Processing Service (PPS), a Policy Enforcement Point (PEP), a Policy Decision Point (PDP) and a Policy Administration Point (PAP). However, the focus in this paper is the PEP and the PDP. The PEP analyses the Metadata on incoming and outgoing messages to determine the sharing agreements between the current participant and the receiving participant. Tests showed that with a proper configuration of the sharing agreements for each participant, messages were either allowed to be automatically passed to the next participant or were blocked and discarded.
