Systrace

Systrace enforces system call policies for applications by constraining the application`s access to the system. The policy is generated interactively. Operations not covered by the policy raise an alarm, allowing an user to refine the currently configured policy. For complicated applications, it is difficult to know the correct policy before running them. Initially, Systrace notifies the user about all system calls that an application tries to execute. The user configures a policy for the specific system call that caused the warning. After a few minutes, a policy is generated that allows the application to run without any warnings. However, events that are not covered still generate a warning. Normally, that is an indication of a security problem. Systrace improves cyber security by providing intrusion prevention. Alternatively, policies can be learned automatically. In many instances, the automatically learned policies can be used for sandboxing immediately. Sometimes, Minimal manual post-processing is necessary.
