A Linux software extension for enhancing security with free access.
Rule Set Based Access Control (RSBAC) is a security extension software designed for current Linux kernels. The software is available for free and is based on the Generalized Framework for Access Control (GFAC). It provides a flexible system of access control by incorporating various modules.
One of the standout features of RSBAC is that it extends all security relevant system calls with security enforcement codes. These codes play a critical role in the central decision component of the software. When a system call is made, the central decision component is activated, and all active decision modules are called upon to generate a combined decision.
The combined decision generated by RSBAC is then implemented by the system call extensions, ensuring that the system's security is upheld. With this software, users can be confident that their Linux system has enhanced security measures in place. It is a reliable and efficient solution for managing access to sensitive data and resources in Linux kernels.
