• Resumen

  • The Symbias OS became fully open sourced in February 2010, which opens even more possibilities for applications developers to understand and analyze its security solution. We present a short introduction to the software features of Symbian platform security: three trust tiers, capability model, data caging, and the Symbian signed process. We also try to compare the security solution with the classical design principles in this area, as well as briefly discuss general design challenges and potential weakness.
