As computers are increasingly embedded, ubiquitous and wirelessly
connected, security becomes imperative. This has led to the
development of the notion of a 'trusted platform', the chief
characteristic of which is the possession of a trusted hardware
element which is able to check all or part of the software running
on this platform. This enables parties to verify the software
environment running on a remote trusted platform, and hence to have
some trust that the data sent to that machine will be processed in
accordance with agreed rules. This new text introduces recent
technological developments in trusted computing, and surveys the
various current approaches to providing trusted platforms. It also
includes application examples based on recent and ongoing research.
The core of the book is based on an open workshop on Trusted
Computing, held at Royal Holloway, University of London, UK.
