....and are of little use if any of these components are compromised. Furthermore, many of the approaches require custom operating systems, which increases management and operational problems. To counter this problem, Arbaugh et al. have developed a high assurance bootstrap process called AEGIS [2, 3]. AEGIS ensures that a valid and authorized operating system kernel is started by verifying the integrity and au This definition is narrower than the one used in the US Trusted Computer Security Evaluation Crite ria [19] in which the word trusted includes access control, covert channel ....
....process through the use of digital signatures and authenticity certificates. When it boots an operating system, AEGIS guarantees that the boot process takes a valid path (in terms of integrity and authorization) from the initial power on event to the login prompt through an inductive process [2]. Although AEGIS significantly improves the security of personal computers, it has drawbacks. First, users must trust their system administrator to authorize, i.e. digitally sign, the trusted operating systems and applications. However, because (1) security threats often come from inside of ....
