that is currently being utilized by every MAC being sold. According to “Apple” (2016), “Built on a rock-solid Unix foundation, it’s engineered to take full advantage of what the hardware is capable of”. One of the more popular choices due to its commercial success, MAC OS is a very user-friendly operating system that allows you to work throughout numerous MAS OS devices. II. Memory Management a.

hardware devices, such as hard disks, printers, and dial-up ports. It sends messages to each application or interactive user (or to a system operator) about the status of operation and any errors that may have occurred. It can offload the management of what are called batch jobs (for example, printing) so that the initiating application is freed from this work. On computers that can provide parallel processing, an operating system can manage how to divide the program so that it runs on more

system’s security policy. Under DAC, the files are owned by the user also that user has full control over them. If an attacker penetrates that user’s account they can do whatever with the files owned by that user. Standard UNIX permissions are still present on the system, and will be consulted before the SElinux policy during access attempts.

this store needs a more efficient computing system. The system will need to keep information available and secure enough to ensure that the information can only be seen by the right people. To help keep things organized, a file structure will also be required to keep all the files with special permissions together for easy access. To better illustrate the security capabilities of Linux Ed Sawicki of Biznix.org said, “The Linux firewall has functionality that rivals expensive commercial firewalls.

An Overview of Computer Viruses in a Research Environment Matt Bishop Department of Mathematics and Computer Science Dartmouth College Hanover, NH 03755 ABSTRACT The threat of attack by computer viruses is in reality a very small part of a much more general threat, specifically attacks aimed at subverting computer security. This paper examines computer viruses as malicious logic in a research and development environment, relates them to various models of security and integrity, and examines current

It consists of the operating system (OS) and utility programs. The operating system controls how your computer system functions. Utility programs are programs that perform general housekeeping tasks for the computer, such as system maintenance and file compression. 2. What are the different kinds of operating systems? Operating systems can be classified into four categories. Real-Time OSs (RTOSs) require no user intervention and are designed for systems with a specific purpose and response time
