Towards Application Security on Untrusted Operating Systems
Complexity in commodity operating systems makes compromises inevitable. Consequently, a great deal of work has examined how to protect security-critical portions of applications f...

Toward securing untrusted storage without public-key operations
Adding security capabilities to shared, remote and untrusted storage file systems leads to performance degradation that limits their use. Public-key cryptographic primitives, wid...

Isolated Program Execution: An Application Transparent Approach for Executing Untrusted Programs
In this paper, we present a new approach for safe execution of untrusted programs by isolating their effects from the rest of the system. Isolation is achieved by intercepting fi...

Secure Isolation of Untrusted Legacy Applications
Existing applications often contain security holes that are not patched until after the system has already been compromised. Even when software updates are available, applying the...

Reducing TCB size by using untrusted components: small kernels versus virtual-machine monitors
Secure systems are best built on top of a small trusted operating system: The smaller the operating system, the easier it can be assured or verified for correctness. In this pape...
