| Abstract | Preventing execution of unauthorized software on a given computer plays a pivotal role in system security. The key problem is that although a program at the beginning of its execution can be verified as authentic, while running, its execution flow can be redirected to externally injected malicious code using, for example, a buffer overflow exploit. Existing techniques address this problem by trying to detect the intrusion at run-time or by formally verifying that the software is not prone to a particular attack.We take a radically different approach to this problem. We aim at intrusion prevention as the core technology for enabling secure computing systems. Intrusion prevention systems force an adversary to solve a computationally hard task in order to create a binary that can be executed on a given machine. In this paper, we present an exemplary system--SPEF--a combination of architectural and compilation techniques that ensure software integrity at run-time. SPEF embeds encrypted, processor-specific constraints into each block of instructions at software installation time and then verifies their existence at run-time. Thus, the processor can execute only properly installed programs, which makes installation the only system gate that needs to be protected. We have designed a SPEF prototype based on the ARM instruction set and validated its impact on security and performance using the MediaBench suite of applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
