Security Enhanced Mobile Operating System (SEMOS)

The Security Enhanced Mobile Operating System, or SEMOS for short, is a project being designed for a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, running Android 4.3.x. The device will be using an Operating System (OS) that is tailored specifically for heightened security. Tungsten Industries is the sponsor for the project, and would like to create a platform for Android based devices that delivers the security and control a user ought to have.

Starting from an Android core OS, based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) with SELinux, we will determine the feasibility of a secure mobile operating system. Our current goal is to research and implement three specific research topics: Mandatory Access Controls (MAC) using Multi-Category Security, Automated Encrypted Cloud Storage, and Remote Log Checking & Retrieval. Long term we wish to create a stable, secure, mobile OS with a sleek and easy to use interface. And all while assessing project risks and providing a status reports to the end of the semester.
