US Patent 12072999 Correctness-preserving security for graph databases

Techniques are disclosed to provide correctness-preserving security for graph databases. In various embodiments, security context data associated with a user with respect to a graph database is stored. A query associated with the user with respect to the graph database is received. A path is allowed to be traversed in connection with responding to the query based at least in part on a grant of a traversal right, reflected in the security context data, to traverse one or more of a node and a relationship included in the path.
