Chapter 18 of Operating System Concepts (Tenth Edition) focuses on operating system security, examining how systems protect against threats to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It begins by outlining the security environment, differentiating between attackers, intruders, and malicious software. The chapter details common threats, including program threats (Trojan horses, trapdoors, logic bombs), system threats (worms, viruses), and network threats (sniffing, spoofing, denial-of-service attacks). It explains key security principles such as authentication, one-time passwords, biometrics, and multifactor authentication. Protection mechanisms like access control, encryption, and digital signatures are discussed alongside security models such as Bell–LaPadula and Biba for enforcing confidentiality and integrity. The chapter also covers intrusion detection systems (IDS), firewalls, and virtual private networks (VPNs) as preventive and detection tools. The importance of auditing and logging is emphasized for post-incident analysis. System security policies and user education are presented as critical elements of a comprehensive defense strategy. Real-world case studies highlight breaches and vulnerabilities in UNIX, Windows, and mobile platforms, illustrating the need for layered defenses. By the end, readers understand the threats facing operating systems, the tools available to mitigate them, and the trade-offs between usability and security in system design.
