Trusted Isolation Environment: An Attestation Architecture with Usage Control Model

The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) proposed remote attestation as a solution for establishing trust among distributed applications However. current TCG attestation architecture requires challengers to attest to every program loaded on the target platform, which will increase the attestation overhead and bring privacy leakage and other security risks In this paper, we define a conceptual model called the Trusted Isolation Environment (TIE) to facilitate remote attestation We then present the implementation of TIE with our tailored Usage CONtrol model (UCONRA) and a set of system-defined policies With its continuous and mutable feature and obligation support, we construct the TIE with flexibility Lastly, we propose our attestation architecture with UCONRA gaining the benefits of scalable and lightweight
