<p>To effectively protect the device system and user private data, the Tizen security architecture is based on privileges and application signing of the Linux basic security model, which includes process isolation and mandatory access control. Since Tizen, as an open mobile platform, provides a wide range of features and experiences for users with a variety of applications, the users must be able to grant privileges for security-sensitive operations.</p>
-<p>Tizen provides API-level access control for security-sensitive operations which, if not used correctly, can harm user privacy and system stability. Therefore, applications that use such sensitive APIs must declare the required privileges in the <a href="../process/setting_properties_n.htm#manifest">tizen-manifest.xml</a> file. Privileges have a level according to their hierarchy. The public level is the minimum privilege level, and any application developed by using the SDK can use these privileges. The platform level is the highest privilege level, and an application that needs theses privileges requires a platform-signed certificate.</p>
+<p>Tizen provides API-level access control for security-sensitive operations which, if not used correctly, can harm user privacy and system stability. Therefore, applications that use such sensitive APIs must declare the required privileges in the <a href="../process/setting_properties_n.htm#manifest">tizen-manifest.xml</a> file. Privileges are categorized into 3 levels-public, partner and platform- according to their hierarchy. The public level is the minimum privilege level hence any application developed by using the SDK can use these privileges. The partner level privileges require at least a partner-signed certificate which is granted to developers who have business relationship with the vendor. The platform level is the highest privilege level, and an application that needs theses privileges requires at least a platform-signed certificate which is granted to the vendor developers.</p>
<p>If an application invokes a privileged API, the Tizen system checks whether the privilege is present in the <span style="font-family: Courier New,Courier,monospace">tizen-manifest.xml</span> file. If the privilege is not present in the file, the system prohibits the application execution.</p>
<p>The Tizen IDE also provides privilege checker tools to check whether the Tizen application source code contains any privilege violations. For more information, see <a href="../../../../org.tizen.devtools/html/native_tools/api_privilege_checker_n.htm">API and Privilege Checker</a>.</p>
