  • Event log tamper resistance
    Patent number: 11295031
    Abstract: Embodiments are described for generating, by the processor, a first event record in response to an event being performed by the computer and generating, by the processor, a first tamper resistance record in response to the first event record being generated. The first tamper resistance record includes a first signature is created based at least in part on the first event record and a second signature is created based at least in part on the first event record. Aspects also includes validating the first event record based on the first signature and the second signature in the first tamper resistance record in response to a request to detect tampering of the first event record.
    Type: Grant
