Abstract

Examples of the present disclosure are related to systems and methods for assuring integrity of operating system and software components at runtime. More specifically, embodiments are directed towards a hardware module configured to monitor a kernel start and drivers being loaded into the kernel, and to continually scan the kernel and drivers for undesired modification after load. Further embodiments extend the monitoring capability to userspace processes.
