The information system isolates security functions from non-security functions by means of an isolation boundary (implemented via partitions and domains) controlling access to and protecting the integrity of, the hardware, software, and firmware that perform those security functions. The information system maintains a separate execution domain (e.g., address space) for each executing process.
Rationale for non-applicability:
The mobile application exists at the highest security layer of the mobile device architecture. Therefore, it cannot depend on the functionality or correctness of higher layers. |
