Subject: [xsl] XSL Driven Redaction Tag From: Gannon Dick <gannon_dick@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2006 13:08:11 -0700 (PDT) |
I've been thinking for a while that for privacy protection HTML and other markup languages could use a redaction tag. The INS and DEL tags are to indicate edits. My redaction tag (RUST - Redact Unless Static Text) works a little bit differently. Given a source document with <rust> tags, if you have two XSLTs, one simply strips the tag and the other redacts and strips. Like for example a US Social Security Number 1) <rust method="rust" mark="X">123-45-6789</rust> -XSLT-> "123-45-6789" 2) <rust method="rust" mark="X">123-45-6789</rust> -XSLT-> "XXX-XX-XXXX" The "problem" this avoids is where a document contains private information and so the default behavior should be non-disclosure and one is (All, please don your tinfoil hats) concerned that hardware solutions, keys and encryption, might have some trap doors. For further information see: http://www.geocities.com/gannon_dick/TakingWorkHome.pdf The XSLT is easy to write. I know because I've rewritten it many times. The PDF explains why how the tag should work in not as obvious as it may seem. All comments welcome. Oh yeah, you can take off the tinfoil hat now. On the other hand, if you follow what they are discussing down Wisconsin Ave. from Mulberry Tech. today perhaps you might want to keep it on just a little longer. --Gannon __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
