In the context of database security, inference is the act or process of deriving sensitive information from premises known or assumed to be true. Whereas, in a multilevel secure DBMS an inference attack occurs when a low level user is able to infer sensitive information through common knowledge and authorized query responses without directly accessing the DBMS. (Morgenstern, 1987)
A technique that facilitates database inference is data mining, a method used to discover patterns within sets of data. Within data mining there are a number of useful tool is such as “data association”, which is a user-defined grouping of seemingly unrelated groups and elements. (Raman, 2001) Association rules are valuable for analyzing consumer behavior, and consist of antecedent (if) and consequent (then) statements, as in “if” a customer buys “x”, “then” they will buy “y”.
