Abstract: The integrity validation of static PC components during booting process is vital to build a trusted platform. Much work has been done in this field. But most of them are based on legacy BIOS. TPM is a tamper- resistant hardware module designed to provide robust security capabilities like remote attestation and sealed storage for the trusted platform. But TPM has its limitation. It can not be directly used in common PC current in use. A portable TPM device is proposed and designed in our lab in this context. Extensible Firmware Interface (abbreviated as EFI) is intended as a significantly improved replacement of the old legacy BIOS. How to build up a trusted chain using portable TPM on EFI based BIOS is what this paper focuses on.
