No me he leido toda la entrevista, porque entre otras cosas, lo poco que he visto son contínuas referencias a la documentación publicada de TCPA. Y claro, apoyarse en el FUD del "Trusted computing"... Pero entresaco esto:
What does AMIBIOS have to do with TCPA? The TPM requires initialization during BIOS POST. This allows what they refer to as "metrics" to be stored that help establish that the BIOS & OS can be trusted (i.e. haven't been h4x0r3d). Our "TCPA & AMIBIOS8" whitepaper has more information.
El entrevistado quiere desviarnos la atención con numerosas referencias, pero al final ante la pregunta clave no tiene otra alternativa que decir la verdad: las BIOS AMI soportarán la arquitectura TCPA/Palladium. Aunque intente justificarse con:
Can open-source software make use of TCPA? Yes. From the TPM FAQ:
18. Does the TCPA support open source systems?
Yes. The ability to use the TPM functionality is available to all developers of software. An open source project could determine to use TPM functionally today. The concepts of measurement, protected storage and attestation of measurements are fundamental concepts that hold true for any type of OS or application. The platforms that support TCPA today are not limited to only one OS and if open source developers provided applications that used the TPM functionality they would find support.
Ah, que bien. ;-) |
