Abstract
A method includes, at a security agent executing on a computing platform including a set of resources and a first application: authenticating the security agent with a security device; accessing a configuration profile, from the security device, defining identity information associated with the first application and a first security policy defining a subset of resources, in the set of resources, to which the first application is permitted access; authenticating the first application based on the identity information; monitoring the set of resources responsive to execution of the first application on the computing platform; and issuing a command to cause the computing platform to enter a safe state in response to detecting an access by the first application to a first resource in the set of resources, the first resource excluded from the subset of resources.
