I wonder how hard it would he to tell the kernel not to spawn anything during session time. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] jbloggs777@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 year ago (1 child) With apparmor, you could enable and disable profiles that could restrict access to files and paths by name.
