Abstract
We discuss and characterize different types of solutions to computer security problems in terms of bad (theoretically sound, but expensive and impractical), ugly (practical, but messy and of doubtful assurance), and good (theoretically sound and practical). We also attempt to characterize the different approaches and problems in computer security that would lead to these different types of solutions
