Description: The Protection Domain is a fundamental mechanism in computer architecture used to isolate different processes and resources within a computer system, aiming to enhance security and stability. This concept is based on the idea that each process or application should operate in its own memory space, thus preventing a malicious or faulty process from interfering with others or accessing sensitive data. In various architectures, protection domains allow for the establishment of access levels and privileges, meaning that certain operations can only be performed by authorized processes. This is particularly relevant in environments handling critical data or requiring a high level of security, such as mobile devices, embedded systems, and IoT applications. The implementation of protection domains not only helps prevent security attacks but also contributes to the efficient management of system resources, ensuring that each application operates optimally without compromising the integrity of the system as a whole.
