Abstract
We simulated message passing information flow tracking in Simics,
a multicore full system simulator. Our implementation provides both protection
from unauthorized communication and a bounding on the impact an adversarial
application can have on the system. We present the performance results of our
micro-benchmarks that simulate the expected behavior for a web server and a number
of potential adversarial workloads.
