Described herein are systems, methods, and software to enhance packet processing. In one implementation, a host computing element identifies a packet from a process executing on the host computing element. In response to identifying the packet, the host computing element determines whether the packet originates from a container namespace corresponding to a container on the host computing element or a host namespace corresponding to the host computing element. If the packet originates from a container namespace, the host computing element may determine supplemental information for the container associated with the container namespace, and process the packet based on the supplemental information.

Example methods are provided for adaptive file access authorization using process access patterns. In a learning mode, attributes and other information, which are associated with applications or with processes that are related to the applications and that attempt to access a file system, are collected and used to generate a policy. In a protected mode, file access requests are examined against the policy, and are granted access to the file system or are denied access to the file system based on the contents of the policy. The policy may be updated so as to adapt to changes in the access patterns and to changes in the application or processes.
