  Description     : an application security framework for high security and easy usabilty

AppArmor is an application security tool designed to provide a highly
secure yet easy to use security framework for your applications.
AppArmor proactively protects the operating system and applications from
external or internal threats, even zero-day attacks, by enforcing good
behavior and preventing even unknown application flaws from being
exploited. AppArmor security policies, called "profiles", completely
define what system resources individual applications can access, and
with what privileges. A number of default profiles are included with
AppArmor, and using a combination of advanced static analysis and
learning-based tools, AppArmor profiles for even very complex
applications can be deployed successfully in a matter of hours.
