The operating system must limit the use of resources by priority.

Overview

Finding ID	Version	Rule ID	IA Controls	Severity
V-33124	SRG-OS-000143-NA	SV-43522r1_rule		Medium

Description
Priority protection helps prevent a lower-priority process from delaying or interfering with the operating system servicing any higher-priority process. Operating systems must limit potential high volume usage resources to protect against a Denial of Service. Rationale for non-applicability: Resource constraints on mobile devices preclude implementation of all IA functions. The applicability of this control may be reconsidered at a future date if subsequent generations of mobile devices are better able to support this control and the applications and data typically on the device justify its implementation.
