摘要：The existing operating system doesn't have kernels level security and they are protected from maliciousactivity through either by using Mandatory Access Control(MAC) or Firewall and antivirus. The existing systems usethe authorization mechanisms. But this is not sucient for achieving system assurance. The operating system Kernel isgoing to perform process level validation ,where user level applications process proves its identity to kernel. Thepresent process validation is performed using process names or an executable path used by OS to identify aprocess,which makes it unreliable. It results in the form of malware that may impersonate the other processes thusviolating the system assurance . Nowadays we heavily rely on mission critical high computing machine to completeour day to day online services and facilities. Therefore, these mission critical computing machines are very critical andorganization don't want the servers to be down because of virus attacks and hacking of those systems. High assurancesystems are now in demand and everybody is looking for new security techniques on top of general Antivirus systemsavailable in the market. These days hackers and viruses on internet are smart enough,that's why the mission criticalsystems having antivirus or firewalls are not sufficient. They are looking for new security techniques at processexecution level to protect them against any malware attacks and system downtime. The system must do validationprocess before execution and that should be based with some trusted internal mechanism.
