Trusted Computing Platforms: Design and Applications

Buy
Many scenarios in modern computing give rise to a common problem: why
should Alice trust computation that’s occurring at Bob’s machine? (The computer
security field likes to talk about “Alice” and “Bob” and protection against
an “adversary” with certain abilities.) What if Bob, or someone who has access
to his machine, is the adversary?

In recent years, industrial efforts—such as the Trusted Computing Platform
Association (TCPA) (now reformed as the Trusted Computing Group, TCG),
Microsoft’s Palladium (now the Next Generation Computing Base, NGSCB),
and Intel’s LaGrande—have advanced the notion of a “trusted computing platform.”
Through a conspiracy of hardware and software magic, these platforms
attempt to solve this remote trust problem, for various types of adversaries.
Current discussions focus mostly on snapshots of the evolving TCPA/TCG
specification, speculation about future designs, and idealogical opinions about
potential social implications. However, these current efforts are just points on
a larger continuum, which ranges from earlier work on secure coprocessor design
and applications, through TCPA/TCG, to recent academic developments.
Without wading through stacks of theses and research literature, the general
computer science reader cannot see this big picture.

The goal of this book is to fill this gap. We will survey the long history of
amplifying small amounts of hardware security into broader system security.
We will start with early prototypes and proposed applications. We will examine
the theory, design, implementation of the IBM 4758 secure coprocessor
platform, and discuss real case study applications that exploit the unique capabilities
of this platform. We will discuss how these foundations grow into the
newer industrial designs such as TCPA/TCG, as well as alternate architectures
this newer hardware can enable. We will then close with an examination of
more recent cutting-edge experimental work.
