Correct Enforcement of Access Control Policy in Modern Operating Systems

Abstract

The modern consumer operating system evolved significantly with the introduction of the Android and iOS smartphone platforms. Android market share now approaches that of Microsoft Windows, and both Android and iOS are transcending a wide variety of consumer and government computing devices. These modern OSes include feature-rich runtime environments that caused designers to re-think access control. The underlying theme of this project is to understand the access control policy of modern OSes and to design techniques that ensure itscorrect enforcement.
