Securing Operating System
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
One of the fundamental concerns in the security of cyberspace and e-commerce is the security of operating systems that are the core piece of software running in all information systems, such as network devices (routers, firewalls, etc), Web servers, customer desktops, PDAs, and so on. Many of known vulnerabilities discovered so far are rooted from the bugs or deficiency of underneath operating systems. This paper discusses the security (or lack of security) of most commercial operating systems like Unix and Microsoft Windows, and its effect to the overall security of Web based applications and services. Based on DOD’s trusted computer system model, the current effort toward development of secure operating systems is presented, and as a case study, the publicly available security enhanced Linux, SE-Linux, is also analysed.
