Abstract-In the trusted computing platform, trust is typically
established solely based on software measurements. Few works
consider the trust of platform hardware. However, hardware
trust is pretty important to a trusted computing platform. In
this paper, we propose the notion of measuring hardware trust
and introduce the defintion of hardware integrity
measurement, which is similar to the software integrity
measurement required by the Trusted Computing Group. Its
purpose is to collect and measure integrity of the whole
platform hardware devices. Thus, to measure and collect
integrity information of platform hardware devices, we
propose the hardware integrity measurem-ent protocol and
analyze how the protocol could defend those attacks. Finally,
we conclude that trust of platform hardware is pretty
important, and shares of research attentions are deserved.
