This book provides a comprehensive design for a portable, flexible high-security cryptographic architecture, with particular emphasis on incorporating rigorous security models and practices. "Cryptographic Security Architecture" unveils an alternative means of building a trustworthy system based on concepts from established software engineering principles and cognitive psychology. Its novel security-kernel design implements a reference monitor that controls access to security-relevant objects and attributes based on a configurable security policy.
Topics and features:
* Builds a concise architectural design that can be easily extended in the future
* Develops an application-specific security kernel that enforces a fully customizable, rule-based security policy
* Presents a new verification technique that allows verification from the high-level specification down to the running code
* Describes effective security assurance in random number generation, and the pitfalls associated therewith
* Examines the generation and protection of cryptovariables, as well as application of the architectural design to cryptographic hardware
The work provides an in-depth presentation of a flexible, platform-independent cryptographic security architecture suited to software, hardware, and hybrid implementations. Security design practitioners, professionals, researchers, and advanced students will find the work an essential resource.
