Abstract

The security of web widgets is improved by transferring a set of access control decisions conventionally handled by the Web Runtime system (WRT) to a more secure portion of the computing system, such as a kernel in the operating system. Access control rules are extracted and provided to the more secure portion. This may be performed during widget installation or at invocation of a widget. During runtime, the more secure portion performs security checking functions for the widget instead of the WRT.
