Explain
briefly about Mandatory Access Control and Discretionary Access
Control.
Mandatory Access Control
allows new access control modules to be loaded, implementing new
security policies. Some provide protections of a narrow subset of the
system, hardening a particular service
Discretionary access control
means that each object has an owner and the owner of the object gets
to choose its access control policy. There are loads of objects in
Windows that use this security model, including printers, services,
and file shares. All secure kernel objects also use this model,
including processes, threads, memory sections, synchronization
objects such as mutexes and events, and named pipes
