NT Security
-
It appears that the NT Security protocol is designed to allow or deny access to files in directories, depending on the security clearance of the human user. I have an application, where access would have to be be decided on, not only by human user identity, but also by means of the identity of the application used to access the data. ( e.g. a User must be stopped from opening a file via NotePad, but, may have access through a Bespoke Application) For instance, Banking Software would have to contain a lot of this. Does Anyone have any Idea or observations about this regards

I'm printing this just off now, but scanning it I got the gist. It appears to be an obvious requirement that Bill gates never thought about! he seems to be pre-occupied with someone getting access to someone else's ascii file, or something that those like CIA could read from a disk they recovered. About that,I can assure everybody that Bill has been quite successfull, in that a known local forger in my local area was set free from proceedings in such matters as providing forged passports, solely, because after two years GCHQ ( The UK Gouvernments Central Code Breaking Institute)in the UK failed to decript the man's hard disk, and the courts ran out of patience. The good news out of this is, that Encryption doe seem to work! The bad news is, it only seems to work in Microsoft ways!
