摘要:Now in today’s modern operating system kernels level security is not present and a well-knownapproach to secure systems from malicious activity is through the deployment of Firewall or Anti-Virus .Existingsolutions belongs to authorization mechanism however authorization mechanism along is not sufficient for achievinghigh level system assurance. Today’s modern computing era operating system Kernel should have process levelvalidation mechanism, where process of user level application proves its identity to kernel. Current process validationis done using information such as process names or an executable path that is conventionally used by OS to identify aprocess is not reliable. This may results in malware may impersonate to other processes thus violating of systemassurance can occur if we don’t prevent untrusted process execution. In our proposed an Enhanced Process LevelValidation system where user-level applications are required to present issued secrete credentials as proofs at runtimeto be validated to kernel. The enhanced process validation system will not allow untrusted processes or code to executeand kernel level validation is provided. We believe that this will be second level measure for secure computing
