  • Publication number: 20200050798
    Abstract: A method for improving the security of a trusted application comprises: signing the trusted application in a hierarchical signature mode by the upper computer to generate a signature file package about the trusted application, and saving the signature file package in a main operation system; obtaining the signature file package and loading the signature file package to the second operation environment by the security execution system; parsing the signature file package by the security execution system to obtain a parsed result; and performing hierarchical verification on the parsed result by the security execution system, and if the hierarchical verification is passed, it will indicate that the trusted application is in a security state, otherwise, it is in a non-security state. The defects of lack of a security authentication mode for the trusted application and relatively low security due to mere adoption of a simple digital signature mechanism are overcome.
