ABSTRACT:
A computer system enables a user to define the system's security profile while automatically detecting whether the security profile being defined creates data hazards for the computer system. To achieve the foregoing, the computer system utilizes memory and a security application. The security application displays a list of security rules to a user and selectively enables the security rules based on user inputs. The security application causes the computer system to enforce the enabled security rules by modifying security settings of the computer system. For each enabled rule, the security application analyzes data that indicates which of the security rules, when enforced by the computer system, create a data hazard for a particular computer application. The security application then detects a data hazard, if the data indicates that the enabled rule creates a data hazard for the particular application and if the particular application is installed on the computer system. The security application, in response to detection of the data hazard, may disable the foregoing rule or notify the user of the detected data hazard.
