A custom GIS plugin repeatedly corrupts neighboring processes by writing into their memory spaces. Which operating-system capability should architects insist on to contain that class of failure?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Process memory should be like hotel rooms with deadbolts—one buggy GIS plugin should not rearrange the furniture in the next room. That is what OS memory protection is for.
Full Explanation
Memory protection is a fundamental IS security capability that isolates process address spaces and prevents unauthorized reads or writes across boundaries. Demanding this isolation contains faulty or malicious plugins. Disabling mitigations, sharing privileged accounts, or using global writable mappings increases blast radius.
