SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENHANCED SECURITY IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

摘要

A communication system having a policy server coupled to a communications network for managing secure communication with and among end instruments (EI). The EI comprises a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory with processor-executable instructions, including instructions for an operating system kernel; and instructions for a protection core that monitors operations of the operating system kernel in accordance with a security policy for the EI. Security policies can intercept calls to an operating system kernel and for each call, determining whether the call is allowed under the security policy(ies). Policies are stored in a policy library and transmitted to an EI over a wireless communication network.
