Abstract

A system for and a method of regulating the data interconnections between applications running on an infrastructure are provided. The system/method records access permission data into metadata embedded in the source code of each such application that regulates the data that can be received or transmitted by that application. In addition to regulating the receipt or transmission of data, the metadata can serve to provide instruction to firewalls and other regulating systems in order to configure those systems to allow the applications to receive and transmit data for which permissions have been recorded.
