Problems solved by technology

[0004] At this stage, the BIOS only completes the initialization operation of the root of trust, and does not verify the identity of the root of trust. Once the root of trust in the computer platform is replaced by an uncontrolled root of trust, the subsequent programs in the computer platform still access or Using this root of trust, the system cannot be known and controlled at the first time, which will threaten the data security on the computer platform

Abstract

The embodiments of the invention disclose a method and a system for controlling a trusted root in a BIOS, the method comprises certificate initialization and certificate verification, the certificateinitialization comprises the steps of generating a hardware platform certificate of the trusted root and importing the hardware platform certificate into the trusted root, and the hardware platform certificate comprises an information main body and a signature value. The method comprises the following steps: initializing a trusted root by a BIOS; and verifying that the information main body in thehardware platform certificate is valid, indicating that the hardware platform certificate is matched with the trusted root, ensuring that the hardware platform certificate is valid, verifying that the signature in the hardware platform certificate is valid, indicating that the hardware platform certificate is matched with the manufacturer public key solidified in the BIOS, and ensuring that the hardware platform certificate is legal. According to the invention, the BIOS verifies the identity of the trusted root after initializing the trusted root, and judges whether to provide a trusted rootfunction for a subsequent running program or not according to the verification result so as to protect the security of upper-layer application data of a computer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer information security, in particular to a method and system for controlling trusted roots in BIOS. Background technique [0002] Cryptographic security modules involve national information security, so countries have different requirements and restrictions on cryptographic security modules, and even only specific cryptographic security modules are allowed to be used in some important areas. The root of trust is a security component in the computer field, which can provide cryptographic functions for the computer system and protect information such as data in the computer platform. [0003] BIOS is the first program executed after the computer is powered on. It is responsible for the initialization operations of various hardware (such as graphics cards, sound cards, etc.), such as device detection, memory mapping, and other operations. The root of trust has a unified specification to constrain eac...
