TrenchBoot leverages Intel TXT and AMD Secure Startup to provide Dynamic Root of Trust for Measurement (DRTM), enhancing boot security beyond traditional approaches. This talk presents current state of the project and findings from extensive hardware testing.
We will start with deciphering the high-level hardware requirements into individual test cases.
Then, we will present the hardware compatibility results across a diverse set of platforms, providing an analytical assessment of what worked, what did not work (and why), showcasing the challenges of utilizing these security technologies.
We will finalize with giving the traditional update of the TrenchBoot project status, focusing on the QubesOS AEM integration.
