This paper presents VSK, a lightweight adaptable OS authorization architecture suitable for self-protection of pervasive devices. A virtual management plane, separate from execution resources, is defined for full run-time control by applications of their execution environment. This plane also performs non-invasive and yet effective authorization thanks to optimized access request checking. The VSK component-based architecture provides flexibility both in the execution plane (for resource customization) and in the management plane (for run-time reconfiguration of authorization policies). Policy neutrality is achieved by adopting the attribute-based paradigm for access control enforcement. Evaluation results show that despite such flexibility, the overhead of this kernel architecture remains low. |
