Techniques for Inter-Process Communication (IPC) in a more secure manner are disclosed. A communication component operating outside of an operating system can obtain operating-system data pertaining to processes that also operate outside of the operating system. The operating-system data can be more reliable than information that may have been provided by the processes, thereby allowing more secure IPC and consequently a more secure computing environment and/or system. A communication component can also be operable to make control decisions regarding the IPC data (e.g., IPC messages) based on the information provided and/or originated by the operating system (or operating-system data) and/or effectively provide the operating-system data pertaining to a sender process to its intended recipient process. A recipient process can also be operable to obtain the operating-system data pertaining to a sender process. Moreover, a recipient process can make control decisions regarding the IPC data originated by the sender process based on the operating-system data effectively provided and/or originated by the operating system rather than the sender process, thereby allowing the recipient process to make control decisions based on information provided by a more reliable (e.g., Trusted) source. |
