Abstract
An edge device may be configured to generate a secure container to perform a software application on the edge device. A security daemon operating on a processor of the edge device may receive a security policy for the software application from a secure container platform, retrieve a license associated with the software application, and determine permissions of the software application based on the retrieved license. The edge device may create a user or group account and updating a system service access-control list (ACL) based on the received security policy and the determined permissions, and generate and send a policy ready message to the secure container platform in response to creating the user or group account and updating the system service ACL.
