Abstract

With the explosive uses of Internet, personal information can be exposed to attackers through various attacks. API hooking based mechanisms or virtual machine based mechanisms are proposed to protect personal data stored in the memory. But these mechanisms require another application program and attackers can get around by developing their own device drivers.We propose a new memory reorganizing mechanism to protect memory. In our proposed mechanism, a user can define his or her own data types and can store data using his or her own data types so that data formats stored in actual memory have different forms.
