ARTICLES RELATED TO Fritz-chip - Sealed storage |  |  |  | Fritz-chip - Sealed storage: Encyclopedia II - Fritz-chip - Sealed storageFritz, in combination with "specialized software", could make it possible for programs to encrypt their data and hide the access keys before storing the data to some storage, like a hard disk, floppy or CD-ROM.
The keys would, presumably, be handled by the "specialized software". If this software is 'secure' (i.e. authorized by Fritz) it may become impossible to access those keys (and so the data) except as all ...

 |  |  | Fritz-chip - Sealed storage: Encyclopedia II - Fritz-chip - Chain of trustWhen the computer starts, the Fritz-chip hardware "wakes up" and checks that the BIOS has not been modified since the last boot. If it has not, Fritz will transfer control to it. If it has, Fritz will (probably) warn the user before it disables itself. The BIOS then loads the bootloader, and asks Fritz to check if that is unchanged since last time. The bootloader then loads the operating system, and asks Fritz to check if that has been modified, and so on. Thus, the Fritz-chip makes it possible to build a chain of trust. It is important to n ...

 |  |  | Fritz-chip - Sealed storage: Encyclopedia II - Fritz-chip - The security of FritzThe TC system works on the assumption that Fritz and the "specialized software" are uncompromised. The security of the system fails if either of them is poorly implemented, poorly designed, or successfully attacked. For instance, if a virus or Trojan horse or any sort of backdoor is installed, security may be entirely lost without notice to the user. If, for example, the NSA had knowledge of such a backdoor, they might be able to compromise a computer remotely, run untrusted software in the protected memory area, or read from sealed storage. ...
