Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for allocating resources to processes based on security risk. The methods include actions of receiving a request from a process executing on a system for an allocation of resources and identifying other processes executing on the system. Additional actions include determining, for each of the processes, a risk score that reflects a likelihood that the process is a malicious process and determining a resource allocation priority based on the risk scores of each of the processes. Further actions include allocating resources to the processes based on the resource allocation priority.
