Secure RPC in embedded system - Evaluation of some GlobalPlatform implementation alternatives
Author
Summary, in English
In secure computing systems, isolation between different
components is normally the basis for security. However, ab-
solute isolation is seldom desired nor practical. Often for the
system to function, a secure communication channel between
otherwise isolated components is also needed. In this work,
we consider implementation of the secure Remote Procedure
Call (RPC) mechanism defined by the GlobalPlatform spec-
ification on top of some different isolation mechanisms. Fur-
thermore, implementation details, performance and security
will be discussed.
