Abstract: Programmers often prefer to use existing system security services, such as file system security, rather than implement their own in an application. Traditional Unix security is generally considered inadequate and few operating systems offer enhanced security features such as ACLs[24] or immutable files[12]. Additional file system security features are always sought, but implementing them is a difficult task because modifying and porting existing file systems is costly or not possible. (Update)

...if the file system is read only, write only, or allows both reading and writing. Read only file systems can be a useful security feature[23]. debug determines whether or not debugging code is included. FiST provides extensive debugging support; developers do not have to write...
