Abstract
An approach is described for improved security during data replication, in which a refresh program runs in the security domain of a trusted user. The refresh program first checks to see if the requesting user actually owns the snapshot before reconciling differences in refreshing a snapshot. Untrusted users are granted only connect privileges and the ability to run a refresh program.
