Introduction
3
 Analyzes and reviews relative work of security
operating system based on trusted computing.
 Classical security model BLP is improved to get
IBLP.
 The overall design scheme and modularized
implementation of a secure system for trusted
computing.
 Experiment result to show effectiveness and
feasibility of their system.
Trusted computing

 Behavior is predictable in any operating condition.
 Highly resistant to subversion by application
software, viruses and a given level of physical
interference.
Trusted Computing Platform
5
 Allows systems to extend trust to clients running on
these platforms.
 Provides open platforms: wide availability, diverse
hardware types, and the ability to run many
applications from many mutually distrusting sources
while still retaining trust in clients.

Security model for trusted computing

 BLP model: simulates a computer system accord
with military security policy.
 In BLP there are 4 access attributes:




e access (execute with neither observe nor alter)
r access (observe with no alter)
a access (alter with no observe)
w access (both observe and alter)

 BLP denotes B(S,O,A) to denote the current access
state set.
 S - set of subject
 O - set of object
 A - access attribute, consists of e access, r access, a
access and w access.
Security model for trusted computing

 Two important axiom: ss- property and star
property.
 Simple security(ss-property):
 * Property (Star property):
Security model for trusted computing
11
 Problems with BLP model:
 Trusted subject does not have star property constraint
 Too large access privilege
 Does not match minimum privilege principle.
 Lack of integrity control.
Design of IBLP security model
12
 The authors of this paper designed a security model
based on trusted computing through the
improvement of BLP and called it IBLP.
Definition of IBLP

Axiom of IBLP

lower integrity level.
3 and 4 :


Trusted subject on the lower confidentiality level can neither observe nor
execute information of the object on the higher confidentiality level.
But can observe and execute information of the object, lower integrity level.
Axiom of IBLP
15
1.
Star-property.
5 and 6 :

common subject can only alter information of the object on the same
confidentiality and integrity level .
7 and 8 :

Trusted subject on the lower integrity level can not alter information
of object on the higher integrity level but can alter information of
object on the lower confidentiality level.

2. Star-property.
Analysis of IBLP
17
1.
Consistent with the basic security feature of BLP.


ss-property of IBLP is consistent with the ss-property of
BLP.
The star property of IBLP can be seen a special case of the
star-property of BLP.
2. Meets the principle of minimum privilege.
3. Prevents the occurrence of covert channel.
4. Meets the security requirement of trusted
computing in a more flexible way.

 Modular implementation:
 Modularly developed and implemented on an open code Linux
environment.
 Trusted identification:
 Is used to ensure that only legitimate users can access the
system resources.

 Privileged access control:
 Ensures that a trusted process only gets the security privilege
that meets the requirement of its task.
 Discretionary access control:
 Uses ACL defined by user to implement access control of
resources.
 <Type, Id, Perm>
 Mandatory access control:
 Manages system resources by classifying them according to
their security level.

 Integrity Measurement:

Mainly protects the content continuously loaded by OS after secure boot of
TPM.

 Security audit:
 Audits any security related events
 Generate and reveal secret information for system manager to
control security situation.
