A cryptographic security architecture is the collection of
hardware and software that protects and controls the use of
encryption keys and similar cryptovariables. It is the foundation
for enforcing computer security policies and controls and
preempting system misuse.
This book provides a comprehensive design for a portable,
flexible high-security cryptographic architecture, with particular
emphasis on incorporating rigorous security models and practices.
"Cryptographic Security Architecture" unveils an alternative means
of building a trustworthy system based on concepts from established
software engineering principles and cognitive psychology. Its novel
security-kernel design implements a reference monitor that controls
access to security-relevant objects and attributes based on a
configurable security policy.
Topics and features:
* Builds a concise architectural design that can be easily
extended in the future
* Develops an application-specific security kernel that enforces
a fully customizable, rule-based security policy
* Presents a new verification technique that allows verification
from the high-level specification down to the running code
* Describes effective security assurance in random number
generation, and the pitfalls associated therewith
* Examines the generation and protection of cryptovariables, as
well as application of the architectural design to cryptographic
hardware
The work provides an in-depth presentation of a flexible,
platform-independent cryptographic security architecture suited to
software, hardware, and hybrid implementations. Security design
practitioners, professionals, researchers, and advanced students
will find the work an essential resource.
