SBIR Phase I: EO: Security Microchip for Mobile Devices

这个小型企业创新研究(SBIR)第一阶段项目的目标是开发和演示一个基于硬件的安全平台，以保护移动电话中的应用程序和机密数据。终端产品组件包括：(I)通过独特的编译驱动指令集混淆技术、内置的密码加速支持和安全存储来保护免受攻击的超低功耗安全芯片；(Ii)支持可信计算集团行业联盟的移动可信平台模块(TPM)规范的移动安全固件以及具有安全软件插件的独特的移动应用程序保护技术；以及(Iii)便于使用我们的技术的相关开发工具，包括以安全为重点的编译器。这些领域的创新结合在一起，将使移动电话上的应用程序和数据得到保护。如果成功，该项目将解决目前阻碍扩大移动电话在金融交易和企业应用中的使用的主要技术障碍。目前，移动电话根本没有内置的安全性，这将导致电子钱包在移动电话上的广泛使用，或者允许用户安全地执行移动企业应用程序。通过专注于超低功耗方法，建议的解决方案可以用于电池供电的应用，并且不会大大减少两次充电之间的时间。

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project has as its objective the development and demonstration of a hardware-based security platform for the protection of applications and confidential data in mobile phones. The end-product components consist of (i) an ultra-low-power security chip protected against attacks, by means of a unique compilation-driven instruction set obfuscation technology, built-in cryptographic acceleration support, and secure storage; (ii) mobile security firmware supporting the Mobile Trusted Platform Module (TPM) specification of the Trusted Computing Group industry consortium and a unique mobile application protection technology with secure software plug-ins, and (iii) associated development tools to facilitate the use of our technology, including a security-focused compiler. Innovations in these areas, when taken together, will permit the securing of applications and data on mobile phones. If successful this project will address key technical obstacles that are at present standing in the way of expanding the use of mobile phones in financial transactions and enterprise applications. Currently, mobile phones simply do not have the amount of built-in security that would lead to the widespread use on them of electronic wallets, for example, or to allowing users to securely execute mobile enterprise applications. By focusing on ultra-low-power approaches, the proposed solutions can be used by battery-powered applications and will not greatly reduce the time between recharges.
