Abstract

The disclosed technology is generally directed to network security for processors. In one example of the technology, a device includes: hardware, including a network interface; a memory; and a processor. The memory is adapted to store run-time data for the device. The memory includes at least a first memory region and a second memory region. The processor that is adapted to execute processor-executable code including a first binary in the first memory region and a second binary in the second memory region. The first binary includes at least one application and a kernel. The kernel is configured to control the hardware. The second binary is configured to operate, upon execution, as a network stack. The device is configured such that the first memory region is protected such that the first memory region is inaccessible to the second binary.
