RECAP: TCG SEMINAR & DEMO SHOWCASE AT RSA CONFERENCE 2016

TCG hosted another informative seminar and demonstration showcase at RSA Conference 2016 on February 29^th at the Moscone Center for more than 1,000 attendees. The TCG half-day Session focused on“Securing the IoT with Trusted Computing”. Doug Cahill, Senior Analyst, ESG, kicked off the session with his keynote, “Trust-based Security for Multi-dimensional Clouds”. Three panels followed Cahill’s keynote. The first panel, moderated by Darin Andersen, Chairman and Founder, Cybertrust, was on “IoT, Trust and Security”,and Andersen was joined by Lee Wilson, Product Development Engineer, Security Innovation and Max Senges, Product Manager, Google. The second panel, moderated by Paul Roberts, Editor and Chief, Security Ledger, examined “Things to do with the TPM”. Roberts was joined by Paul England, Software Architect, Microsoft Corporation, and Matthew Garrett, Principal Security Software Engineer, Core OS for a lively discussion. The final panel, “Network Security in the IoT”, continued the seminar focus on all things IoT. Derek Harp, Director ICS Global Programs, SANS, moderated the panel and was joined by Steve Venema, Senior Security Architect, Polyverse and Tony Sager, Senior VP and Chief Evangelist, Center for Internet Security.

The showcase hosted 24 demonstrations featuring a number of TCG specifications.

STANDARDIZING TRUST FOR EMBEDDED SYSTEMS

If you haven’t been concerned about malicious players hacking into your products in the past, or haven’t found success with previous efforts, it’s time for renewed attention and action. Hacking efforts aren’t slowing and, in fact, are on the rise. These days, hackers can accomplish far more than ever before—and the repercussions are far more costly.

TCG recognized the need for establishing trust in computing products over a decade ago. Experts from member companies developed the specification for a hardware component called the Trusted Platform Module (TPM). More recently, TCG has greatly simplified the ability to take advantage of TPM-based security and has turned its attention to embedded applications.

NEW IoT RESOURCES

Every day, more things are connected to networks. These range from industrial machines to home appliances to vehicles and billions of sensors. Recognizing the importance of security in the IoT, TCG has published an  Architects Guide: IoT Security which demonstrates using widely available and implemented industry standard solutions for a secure IoT infrastructure. For a dynamic visual representation TCG has created an IoT Infographic – Securing the Internet of Things,

TRUSTED COMPUTING GROUP RECEIVES JTC 1 APPROVAL FOR TPM 2.0 LIBRARY SPECIFICATION

JTC 1, a joint committee of the International Organization for Standardization, or ISO, and IEC, the International Electro technical Commission, approved the final ballot for publication of the Trusted Computing Group Trusted Platform Module Library Specification 2.0 as the International Standard ISO/IEC 11889:2015, Parts 1-4, in December 2015.

The ISO/IEC 11889:2015 standard publication is available at:

·        ISO/IEC 11889-1:2015 Information technology -- TPM Library -- Part 1: Architecture

·        ISO/IEC 11889-2:2015 Information technology -- TPM Library -- Part 2: Structures

·        ISO/IEC 11889-3:2015 Information technology -- TPM Library -- Part 3: Commands

·        ISO/IEC 11889-4:2015 Information technology -- TPM Library -- Part 4: Supporting Routines

PUBLISHED SPECIFICATIONS

Errata Version 1.4 for Trusted Platform Module Library Specification, Family "2.0"

This document describes errata and clarifications for the TCG Trusted Platform Module Library Version 2.0 Revision 1.16 as published.

TPM 2.0 Mobile Common Profile, Family “2.0”

The TPM 2.0 Mobile Reference Architecture Specification defines architecture for the implementation of a TPM 2.0 Library Specification-compliant TPM executing within a Protected Environment in mobile platforms. It includes examples of several implementation approaches.

TCG Opal Test Cases

The Opal Test Cases Specification contains a set of tests that are intended to verify the correct behavior of a storage device implementing the Opal SSC Specification. These test cases are intended to be used as a basis for the compliance component of the projected Storage certification program, which would seek to ensure a high level of interoperability of storage devices from multiple vendors.

Storage Work Group Storage Interface Interactions

The TCG Storage specifications are intended to provide a comprehensive command architecture for putting storage devices under policy control as determined by the trusted platform host, the capabilities of the storage device to conform with the policies of the trusted platform, and the lifecycle state of the storage device as a trusted peripheral (TPer). This document also serves as a specification for TPers if that is deemed appropriate.

TCG Storage Opal Integration Guidelines

This document provides guidelines on integrating SDs implemented according to the Opal Family of specifications. This includes a description of the ownership model utilized in the TCG Storage specifications; the SID authority and its role in managing the storage device; and the processes and guidelines for taking ownership of the TPer. This document also provides insight on integration of other Opal features into systems.
