IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2013-07-01
Abstract: An apparatus and method for managing access permissions to selected operating system resources is disclosed in which control of the access permission is provided externally to the operating system. An operating system may request access to a dataset (file) having associated access permissions, the request being received at an access controller 109 external to the operating system. Access to the dataset is granted only if the request is found to be compatible with the access permissions for the dataset. The method and apparatus is particularly relevant for use when an operating system has been installed and during installation, a storage access controller 109 can be used with a file integrity table 110 in order to place certain datasets 108 into particular storage locations 104 based on the access permissions associated with the datasets. The storage access controller 109 is used to control access to data on storage devices 104 by the operating system when installed and running of the computer. An operating system installer 105 is arranged to identify critical datasets using the file integrity table 110 and move these datasets 108 from the operating system file system to storage devices 104 based upon the respective access permissions.
