Security for Operating Systems

چکیده
Security of computing systems is a vital topic whose importance only keeps increasing. Much money has been lost and many people’s lives have been harmed when computer security has failed. Attacks on computer systems are so common as to be inevitable in almost any scenario where you perform computing. Generally, all elements of a computer system can be subject to attack, and flaws in any of them can give an attacker an opportunity to do something you want to prevent. But operating systems are particularly important from a security perspective. Why?

متن کاملOperating System Security
Operating systems provide the fundamental mechanisms for securing computer processing. Since the 1960s, operating systems designers have explored how to build “secure” operating systems — operating systems whose mechanisms protect the system against a motivated adversary. Recently, the importance of ensuring such security has become a mainstream issue for all operating systems. In this book, we...
