September 8, 2005 - 3:30 p.m. - STEW 206 - Dr. George Cox
ABSTRACT:
Our computing platforms, from cell phones to servers, find themselves under ever more aggressive and tenacious attack. As we continue to become more dependent on these platforms in our daily lives, we naturally want to be able to trust that they will not fail under these attacks. Building a basis for being able to trust the robustness of our computing platforms is the subject of this talk. Topics covered will include the problems, promises, concepts, practical realities, and research opportunities in the Trustworthy Platform arena. Of particular interest are methods for dealing with legacy, system integration, and manageability issues.
