Trusted Operating System Technology in Web-based Computing.

Presented at Black Hat USA 1998, July 30, 1998, 3 p.m. (80 minutes)

Increased reliance on mission-critical services delivered over the Internet carries with it the increased risk of an outsider opening a pipeline from the Internet to critical internal data. In this talk, Mr. McNabb will be discussing the security challenges that face providers of Internet-based applications and the limitations of traditional methods of security in these types of environments. Mr. McNabb will then describe the means by which trusted operating system technology can overcome these limitations.
