Abstract:
A processor system is arranged to execute user selected applications. A manager module is configured to detect a user selection of an application and configured to initiate a launch process. A supervisor module is configured to intercept the launch process initiated by the manager module and detect whether the application is a trusted application or an untrusted application. Trusted applications have a privilege to access resources without authorization, and untrusted applications do not have the privilege. The supervisor module has the privilege to access the resources. When the application is untrusted, the application is launched in a container, and at least one of the resources is delivered to the untrusted application in the container.
