Problems solved by technology

However, this startup measurement method does not perform security verification on the BIOS, and only performs an overall measurement on the operating system
In addition, this startup measurement method needs to modify the BIOS firmware program to realize it. For computer equipment that has been shipped but has not modified the BIOS firmware program, startup measurement cannot be performed, and startup measurement adaptation for all computer equipment cannot be achieved.

Embodiment 1

[0061] Based on the above-mentioned trusted computing platform, for allowing the situation of directly modifying the BIOS firmware program, the present invention provides a startup measurement method, including:

[0062] S101. After the trusted computing platform is powered on, the TPCM is started before the CPU of the computing subsystem, and the TPCM measures the BIOS of the computing subsystem.

[0063] S102. If the measurement result is credible, start the CPU and load the BIOS. During the execution of the BIOS, the measurement agent module in the BIOS (the TSB in the protection subsystem is implanted into the agent in the computing subsystem) first intercepts the loading of the OSLoader code, then reads the OSLoader code and its related information from the hard disk, and Send it to TPCM for measurement.

[0064] S103. If the measurement result of the OSLoader is credible, the BIOS loads and executes the OSLoader. Afterwards, the measurement proxy module in OSLoader fir...

Abstract

The invention discloses a startup measurement method and device using an OPROM mechanism. The method includes: after the trusted computing platform is powered on, the trusted platform control module in the protection subsystem is started before the CPU in the computing subsystem, and the protection subsystem The system uses the trusted platform control module as the root of trust to measure the BIOS firmware program of the computing subsystem. If the measurement result of the BIOS firmware program is credible, the OSLoader code of the computing subsystem is checked by using the OPROM mechanism during the execution of the BIOS firmware program. Perform measurement. If the measurement result of the OSLoader code is credible, continue to measure the operating system and applications of the computing subsystem until the trust chain of the computing subsystem is established. The startup measurement method provided by the present invention utilizes the OPROM mechanism to realize the startup measurement of the computer equipment without modifying the BIOS, and the startup measurement method can be adapted to all computer equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer security, in particular to a startup measurement method and device using an OPROM mechanism. Background technique [0002] In order to ensure the safe startup and operation of the computer, it is usually necessary to perform trusted measurement on the computer startup process, that is, before loading and executing the next-stage startup object, it is necessary to measure the next-stage startup object, for example, the BIOS needs to measure the next-stage OS To measure. [0003] In the prior art, the BIOS firmware program of the computer is usually modified to enable the computer to have a Secure Boot function, and the Secure Boot function is used to implement security verification of the operating system during the computer startup process. However, this startup measurement method does not perform security verification on the BIOS, and only performs an overall measurement on the operating system...
