+  Abstract = "This paper explores the idea of knowledge-based security
+              policies, which are used to decide whether to answer
+              queries over secret data based on an estimation of the
+              querier's (possibly increased) knowledge given the
+              results. Limiting knowledge is the goal of existing
+              information release policies that employ mechanisms such
+              as noising, anonymization, and
+              redaction. Knowledge-based policies are more general:
+              they increase flexibility by not fixing the means to
+              restrict information flow. We enforce a knowledge-based
+              policy by explicitly tracking a model of a querier's
+              belief about secret data, represented as a probability
+              distribution, and denying any query that could increase
+              knowledge above a given threshold. We implement query
+              analysis and belief tracking via abstract interpretation
+              using a novel probabilistic polyhedral domain, whose
+              design permits trading off precision with performance
+              while ensuring estimates of a querier's knowledge are
+              sound. Experiments with our implementation show that
+              several useful queries can be handled efficiently, and
+              performance scales far better than would more standard
+              implementations of probabilistic computation based on
+              sampling."
