  • Publication number: 20200042711
    Abstract: A method for starting a trusted embedded platform based on TPM industrial control includes taking a Core Root of Trust Measurement (CRTM) as a source of a trust chain and executing CRTM after electrifying an embedded platform; conducting trust measurement of BIOS and starting BIOS after passing measurement; BIOS measuring Bootloader and extending a measured value into PCR corresponding to TPM; after passing the measurement, transferring a control execution right to Bootloader; and Bootloader measuring OS kernel start process, recording a measured value into PCR of TPM, and executing a start flow of OS after passing the measurement. The method performs measurement before start of each part of a start process, and measured values are also stored in the PCR corresponding to TPM.
