Abstract
Systems and methods for providing security to the Linux kernel are described. Wrappers are provided around the kernel, thereby reducing the amount of testing needed since the new security code will be introduced only into the wrappers. This also provides flexibility in various layers. The filters may be customized per se to suit various security needs. Overhead incurred due to this is very low.
