Trusted Boot and Platform Trust Services on 1CD Linux

We developed 1CD Linux which shows the benefit of trusted computing. It includes Trusted Boot and Platform Trust Services, which use a secure chip "TPM" and are hardware rooted trust. The integrity of platform and vulnerability of packages are verified by the remote attestation. The 1CD Linux includes Union File System, which keeps the keys of TPM and the updated applications for next boot time. User can customize the OS and verify the vulnerability. We also offer the virtual machine "Xen-HVM" which supportsa virtual TPM. The virtual machine does not depend on a physical TPM and makes possible to try the feasibility of trusted computing on many PCs. The ready-to-use environment makes easy to understand the trusted computing and increases the awareness.
