METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ENHANCING THE INTEGRITY OF COMPUTING WITH SHARED DATA AND ALGORITHMS

摘要

A method for providing a secure computing environment creates an isolated computing environment using supervisory programs that are provided with a public access key of a public-private access key pair and not the private key of the public-private access key pair such that access to the computing environment is unavailable to the supervisory programs to thereby prevent the supervisory programs from affecting results of computations executed in the computing environment. An isolated computing environment is a computing environment in which only a specified maximum number of application processes and specified system processes implementing the computing environment are able to operate. A baseline digest of the isolated computing environment is caused to be generated and stored in a location so that the baseline digest is validated by or available to at least one third party to thereby establish a trusted and isolated computing environment.
