Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021234267A1] Method for securing a system call, method for implementing an associated security policy and devices for carrying out such methods. The securing method secures at least one system call triggered by a current process of a user space of a software system. Said method is implemented by a kernel of the software system before executing at least one operation triggered by the at least one system call and comprises: a step (E30) of obtaining at least one namespace of the kernel, the namespace being dedicated to the security management associated with the current process; a step (E50) of executing a security policy associated with the operation and recorded in an area (ZPS) of the kernel (KER), which area is defined in the namespace; a step (E30) of obtaining at least one namespace (ENSECURE0) dedicated to the security management and ancestor of the namespace (ENSECURE1) of the current process (pl); a step (E50) of executing a security policy associated with the operation and recorded in an area (ZPS) of the kernel (KER) defined in the ancestor namespace; and a step of processing the system call according to a result (RET) of the executions.
