Nokia Research Center on Mobile Trusted Module
Posted by Ken Y-N on June 28th, 2010 at 01:57pm
I noticed recently that Jan-Erik Ekberg from the Nokia Research Center has written a chapter for the book Trust Modeling and Management in Digital Environments: From Social Concept to System Development. His chapter is entitled Mobile Trusted Computing Based on MTM, and describes amongst other things his work at Nokia on the Mobile Trusted Module, the mobile phone-targeted version of the Trusted Platform Module. An extract from the abstract reads thus:
This chapter provides an overview of a few hardware security architectures (in handsets) to introduce the reader to the problem domain. The main focus of the text is in introducing the MTM specification – by first presenting its main functional concepts, and then by adapting it to one of the hardware architectures first described, essentially presenting a plausible practical deployment. The author also presents a brief security analysis of the MTM component, and a few novel ideas regarding how the (mobile) trusted module can be extended, and be made more versatile.
I’ve placed a request for this book in our office library, as the preface sounds like there’s a lot of interesting coverage of the current state of the art in Trusted Computing.

the chapter from Ekberg really gives a good overview of the current technology and the state-of-the-art.
The following chapter in the book: Scaling Concepts between Trust and Enforcement, also seems to give a really good overview of current forward-thinking in the area of attestation concepts and their applications. Definitely a book to buy if you’re interested in TC.
