摘要:
The restriction of particular resources includes providing a digital signature for unauthorized resources based on a structure-related parameter of the resource. Thus, attempts at circumventing recognition of such resource will likely result in altering the overall functionality of the resource. Further, such digital signatures are encoded in a critical file required for loading of a resource, thus ensuring that the identity of the resource is considered before execution thereof. Enforcement of the resource restriction includes generating a verification signature for a resource that requests loading. The verification signature is compared to the signature coded into the critical file, and a positive match results in the resource being blocked from loading.
摘要:
An operating system for a computing device has a first session for a user that includes a first base process that has a first privileges token attached thereto. The first privileges token includes substantially a full set of privileges of the user on the operating system. The operating system also has a second session for the user that includes a second base process that has a second privileges token attached thereto. The second privileges token is derived from the first privileges token and includes only a minimum set of privileges of the user on the operating system. Thus, the second, limited token does not have all privileges associated with the first, full token but instead has a limited set of privileges and not extra privileges that could be employed to take actions that would be harmful, deceptive, or malicious.
摘要:
A system that generates a per user abstraction of a store from a connection point. Filtering a view set of a hierarchically secured containment hierarchy based on the access permissions of the principal is one of the novel features of the invention. The invention can offer a collection of primitives that can operate on this aggregation that span multiple container hierarchies with potentially heterogeneous security descriptors. The model can reduce the necessity to traverse the container hierarchy to discover all the accessible items in a domain.

An item inheritance system and method are provided. The item inheritance system can be employed to propagate access control information (e.g., an access control list) to one or more item(s), thus facilitating security of item(s). At least one of the item(s) is a compound item. The item inheritance system includes an input component that receives information associated with one or more items. The items can include container(s), object(s) and/or compound item(s). The system can be triggered by a change in security policy to the item(s), for example, adding and/or deleting a user's access to the item(s). Additionally, moving and/or copying a collection of items can further trigger the system. The system further includes a propagation component that propagates access control information to the item(s). For example, the propagation component can enforce the ACL propagation policies when a change to the security descriptor takes place at the root of a hierarchy.
