What is a safe operating system?
A safe operating system generally concerns one of two things; The operating system that focuses strongly on internal and external security or the operating system that has an external security certification. In both cases, these operating systems have a security level that is higher than the average system. As a result, a safe operating system is generally used in places that store important data or are seriously endangered by attack. These systems often have safe functions and light encryption created directly into their code. This is, unlike the ordinary operating system, which usually relies on third -party programs. Because these programs have not been loaded as part of the operating system, there is always a small window in which to bypass them. On a safe operating system, protection is indistinguishable and non -removable from the operating system as a whole; Therefore, it is much harder to work.
Some of these secure operating systems are designed for specific use and nothing else. For exampleLad programming inside the hardware firewall or authentication server is often a variant on the common operating system. In these cases the system still exists; It was simply limited to bare features needed for safety protocols.
Some standard operating systems will receive approval from an external securities system. This type of secure operating system is generally very similar to the common version of the user, often with several small changes. These changes increase the safer areas of the system, but do not change the overall methods and operation of the system.
In general, a safe operating system is used in a high -risk point. The operating system will provide the first level of defense against the intrusion and theft of data. Even with a security operating system, it is not unusual to find other layers of encryption and protection on the computer. These other third -party programs overcome any shortcomings in the built -in programH and further protects the system.
Even with a secure operating system, the user's actions play a huge role in overall security. For the average user, security often comes to second place for usability. As a result, many users turn off certain security systems as soon as they get in the way of using a computer. On many secure systems there are warranties that prevent the user from interference or to automatically return protection. This will help maintain the basic level of security, even if specific operations are disrupted.
