Abstract

Protection of interpreted programming language code filesystem files from access and alteration may be provided by encrypting a file to be protected in a boot sequence. Run-time examination of a virtual appliance may be deterred by hiding the boot sequence in a restricted virtual appliance platform. No shell or filesystem access may be provided. Thus, permissions on a read-only filesystem (for example) may be kept from being altered. The permissions may be set along with filesystem access control lists to prevent unauthorized examination of the source files.
