Abstract
An operating system identifies a request of a process to create, in a file system of the computing device, a new object. The operating system creates an object label for the new object, identifies one or more security policy rules applicable to the process, and verifies whether the process is authorized to create the new object with the object label in the file system of the computing device using the applicable security policy rules. When the process is authorized to create the new object with the object label, the operating system creates the new object with the object label in the file system of the computing device. When the process is not authorized to create the new object with the object label, an error message is generated.
