Abstract
Generally described, a method, software system, and computer-readable medium are provided for preventing a malware from colliding on a named object. In accordance with one aspect, a method is provided for creating a private namespace. More specifically, the method includes receiving a request to create a private namespace that contains data for defining the boundary of the private namespace from the current process. Then a determination is made regarding whether a principle associated with the current process has the security attributes that are alleged in the request. In this regard, if the principle that is associated with the current process has the security attributes that are alleged in the request, the method creates a container object to implement the private namespace that is defined by the data received in the request.
