- Linux Security Modules Enhancements: Module Stacking Framework and TCP State Transition Hooks for State-Driven NIDS
- Until the availability of Kernel 2.6 the Linux operating system lacked general support to integrate security mechanisms into the kernel. The Linux Security Module Framework LSM was designed to overcome this limitation. Although LSM provides a solid baseline for kernel security, it lacks important features. In this paper two of...
