About this title

Synopsis

 Trusted Computing Platforms: Design and Applications is written for security architects, application designers, and the general computer scientist interested in the evolution and uses of this emerging technology. Starting with early prototypes and proposed applications, this book surveys the longer history of amplifying small amounts of hardware security into broader system security, using real case studies on security architecture and applications on multiple types of platforms. The author examines the theory, design, implementation of the IBM 4758 secure coprocessor platform and discusses real case study applications that exploit its unique capabilities. The author discusses how these foundations grow into newer industrial designs, discusses alternate architectures and applications that this newer hardware can enable, and cutting-edge research
