Hi!

Does anyone here know of work being done in order to implement secure IPC for Linux?

Anyone that have some ideas for how this could be done?

Linux uses the System V IPC, maybe a switch to a IPC like the one used in the gnu match microkernel is more secure and comfortable. The port concept is very interesting, becuase it has access rights.
