Hi, I want to write a piece of code (user or kernel space) that will stop execution of a particular binary say N. Donot want to tie up the executable to any user and do a chown or chmod. Want to prevent the execution independent of any user association. Is file system filter driver a valid option? Can someone give me pointers to how I can do that on Linux. If there exists some file execution event a user space application can register to and stop the execution would be ideal for my scenario.
