CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201810998169.9, filed on 29 Aug. 2018 and entitled “CRYPTOGRAPHIC OPERATION PROCESSING METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR BUILDING MEASUREMENT FOR TRUST CHAIN,” which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of cryptographic operations, and, more particularly, to cryptographic operation processing methods, apparatuses, and systems, and methods for building measurement for trust chains.

BACKGROUND

With the popularization of computer applications and increasingly rampant hardware attacks, more attention has been paid to the integrity assurance for transaction platforms and systems. Measurement is a novel technological means for protecting the integrity of platforms and systems as follows: at certain moments, a target is measured to obtain certain information of the target (e.g., hash values of files), the information values are compared with pre-recorded standard values, thereby determining whether the target integrity has been destroyed.

With respect to conventional Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) and Trusted Platform Control Module (TPCMs), in trusted high-speed encryption card scenarios, existing measurement methods and processes cannot ensure the integrity of a cryptographic operation algorithm during high-speed cryptographic operations. In addition, the conventional techniques cannot ensure the trusted loading and trusted dynamic execution of cryptographic operation firmware during high-speed cryptographic operations, thereby resulting in a low credibility of cryptographic operations.

No effective solution has been proposed currently to solve the above problems.

The method example embodiment provided in Example embodiment 1 of the present application may be executed in a mobile terminal, a computer terminal, or a similar computing device. FIG. 1 is a structural hardware block diagram of a computer terminal (or a mobile device) configured to implement a cryptographic operation processing method.

As shown in FIG. 1, a computer terminal 100 (such as a mobile device) may include one or more processors (shown as 102a, 102b, . . . , 102n in FIG. 1, wherein n may be any integer) (the processor(s) 102 may include, but is not limited to, a processing apparatus such as a microprocessor (MCU) or a programmable logic device (FPGA)), a memory 104 configured to store data, and a transmission apparatus 106 for communication functions. In addition, the computer terminal 100 may also include: a bus interface 108, an input/output interface (I/O interface) 110. The bus interface 108 transmits data between the processor 102, the memory 104, the transmission apparatus 106, and the input/output interface 110. For example, a universal serial bus (USB) port may be included as one of the ports of the I/O interface 110. The computer terminal 100 may also include a network interface, a power supply and/or a camera (not shown in FIG. 1). It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the structure shown in FIG. 1 is merely illustrative and does not limit the structure of the above electronic device. For example, the computer terminal 100 may also include more or fewer components than those shown in FIG. 1 or have a configuration different from that shown in FIG. 1.

It should be noted that the one or more processors 102 and/or other data processing circuits may generally be referred to as “data processing circuits” in the present disclosure. The data processing circuit may be embodied completely or partially as software, hardware, firmware or any other combination. Moreover, the data processing circuit may be a single, independent determining module, or incorporated completely or partially into any of other elements in the computer terminal 100. As referred to in the example embodiment of the present disclosure, the data processing circuit works as a processor to control, e.g., selection of a variable resistance terminal path connected to the interface.

The memory 104 may be configured to store software programs and modules of application software, such as computer-readable instructions 112 or data storage apparatus 114 corresponding to the file processing method in the example embodiment of the present disclosure. The processor 102 executes the software programs and modules stored in the memory 104, thus performing various functional applications and data processing, that is, implementing the file processing method. The memory 104 may include a high-speed random-access memory and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic storage apparatuses, a flash memory, or other non-volatile solid-state memories. In some examples, the memory 104 may further include memories placed remote to the processor 102. These remote memories may be connected to the computer terminal 100 over a network. Examples of the network include, but are not limited to, the Internet, an intranet, a local area network, a mobile communication network, and a combination thereof.

The transmission apparatus 106 is configured to receive or send data via a network. A specific example of the network may include a wire and/or wireless network 116 provided by a communication provider of the computer terminal 100.

In an example embodiment, the computer terminal 100 may be connected or electronically connected to one or more servers (such as a secure server, a resource server, and a game server) via a data network. In an example embodiment, the computer terminal 100 may be any mobile computing device or the like.

The computer terminal 100 may be connected to a network service that is executed by one server (for example, a security server) or a group of servers. The network service is a network-based user service such as a social network, cloud resources, email, online payment, or other online application.

In the use of computers, hardware attacks are a common form of virus intrusion, which uses a virus to modify firmware programs in hardware to cause a running fault or damage to the hardware, resulting in system down-time. In the prior art, a common way to solve hardware attacks is to improve the overall security of the system by performing trusted computing on the target hardware.

For example, the target hardware is measured to determine whether the target hardware is trusted. The measurement is a new technology for protecting platform and system integrity: measuring a target at certain moments to obtain some information about the target (such as a hash value of a file), and comparing values of the information with standard values recorded in advance, to determine whether the integrity of the target is damaged.

For existing Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) and Trusted Platform Control Modules (TPCMs), in trusted high-speed encryption card scenarios, the high-speed encryption card includes a security chip configured to perform credibility monitoring and a cryptographic operation chip configured to perform a cryptographic operation. Credibility of an algorithm for processing cryptographic operations is tested at particular moments, for example, before delivery of the encryption card or during maintenance Trusted computing is performed on the encryption card. After the credibility test is passed, it is considered that the cryptographic operation algorithm in the encryption card is trusted. Therefore, the credibility of cryptographic operations may be improved to a certain extent. However, the trusted high-speed encryption card cannot ensure the integrity of the cryptographic operation algorithm during high-speed cryptographic operations each time when a high-speed cryptographic operation request is received from a user and cannot ensure the trusted loading and trusted dynamic execution of cryptographic operation firmware during high-speed cryptographic operations.

In the runtime environment, the present application provides a cryptographic operation processing method as shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a cryptographic operation processing method according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, the cryptographic operation processing method includes the following method steps:

Step S202. A cryptographic operation chip receives a cryptographic operation request.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip may be a chip configured to perform cryptographic operations or may be a cryptographic operation function module such as a cryptographic operation algorithm firmware configured to perform cryptographic operations in a chip.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation request may be sent by the user to request the cryptographic operation chip to perform a cryptographic operation. When a cryptographic operation needs to be performed, the user sends a cryptographic operation request through a man-machine interface, and the cryptographic operation request is processed and sent to the cryptographic operation chip, so that the cryptographic operation chip performs the cryptographic operation.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip may be a high-speed cryptographic operation chip.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation request may include user information, a user platform identity certificate, a related attribute of the cryptographic operation request from the user, and the like. The user information may be identity information used for representing a user identity, and the like. The related attribute of the cryptographic operation request from the user may be a cryptographic operation algorithm, a key length, and the like to be used by the cryptographic operation.

As an example embodiment, after the cryptographic operation algorithm is measured once, the cryptographic operation chip considers that the cryptographic operation algorithm is trusted. After receiving a cryptographic operation request, the cryptographic operation chip considers by default that the cryptographic operation algorithm is trusted, and directly performs a cryptographic operation according to the cryptographic operation request.

Step S204. The cryptographic operation chip measures cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using a cryptographic operation measurement root to obtain a first measurement result and sends the obtained first measurement result to a security chip.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is measured by using the cryptographic operation measurement root, and the cryptographic operation measurement root may be a sub-function in the dynamic measurement module and is used for measuring the integrity of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware.

It should be noted that the cryptographic operation chip may measure the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware in various manners, for example, by calculating a hash value of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, comparing the calculated hash value with a standard hash value recorded in advance to determine the integrity of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, and if the calculated hash value is the same as the standard hash value, determining that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted, or if the calculated hash value is different from the standard hash value, determining that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is not trusted; for another example, by calculating a hash value of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, measuring the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, and determining whether the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted.

As an example embodiment, the first measurement result may be the hash value, or may be other attribute information used for determining the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware. The measurement result is used for reflecting an attribute of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, and after the attribute passes the verification by the security chip, it may be considered that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted.

As an example embodiment, the first measurement result is sent to the security chip, and after receiving the first measurement result, the security chip performs trusted computing on the first measurement result, and feeds a result of the trusted computing back to the cryptographic operation chip to instruct the cryptographic operation chip to operate.

Step S206. The cryptographic operation chip receives a comparison result fed back by the security chip, wherein the comparison result is a result determined by the security chip and indicating whether the first measurement result is the same as a second measurement result stored in advance.

As an example embodiment, after receiving the first measurement result, the security chip may compare the first measurement result with the second measurement result directly stored in advance. The second measurement result is obtained through measurement after it is determined that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted. It should be noted that the first measurement result and the second measurement result measure the same attribute quantity of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware.

As an example embodiment, after receiving the first measurement result, the security chip may further perform processing and an operation on the first measurement result to obtain an operation result corresponding to the first measurement result, and compare the operation result with a result stored in advance to determine the credibility of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware. It should be noted that the result stored in advance is also obtained through measurement when it is determined that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted, and through the above processing and operation.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip receives the comparison result fed back by the security chip, and the comparison result may reflect whether the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware in the cryptographic operation chip is trusted, and is for example represented by whether the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result.

As an example embodiment, when the comparison result indicates that the security chip determines that the first measurement result is different from the second measurement result, it is considered that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware measured by the first measurement result is not trusted; when the comparison result indicates that the security chip determines that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result, it is considered that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware measured by the first measurement result is trusted.

As an example embodiment, when the cryptographic operation algorithm is trusted, the security chip sends the comparison result to the cryptographic operation chip, so that the cryptographic operation chip performs a subsequent action.

Step S208. The cryptographic operation chip performs a cryptographic operation when the comparison result indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result.

As an example embodiment, the comparison result received by the cryptographic operation chip indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result, indicating that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware in the cryptographic operation chip is trusted.

As an example embodiment, when the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip is trusted, the cryptographic operation is executed, thereby ensuring that the cryptographic operation is trusted.

By performing measurement for trust on the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip, it is ensured that the cryptographic operation is trusted.

As an example embodiment, each time when a cryptographic operation request is received, measurement for trust is performed on the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip, so as to ensure credibility of a cryptographic operation performed in response to a cryptographic operation request by the cryptographic operation chip after receiving the cryptographic operation request.

In the example embodiments of the present disclosure, a cryptographic operation chip receives a cryptographic operation request; the cryptographic operation chip measures cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using a cryptographic operation measurement root to obtain a first measurement result and sends the obtained first measurement result to a security chip; the cryptographic operation chip receives a comparison result fed back by the security chip, wherein the comparison result is a result determined by the security chip and indicating whether the first measurement result is the same as a second measurement result stored in advance; and the cryptographic operation chip performs a cryptographic operation when the comparison result indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result. In this way, the algorithm firmware performing cryptographic operations is measured, cryptographic operations are made more trusted, thereby effectively improving the credibility of cryptographic operations and solving the technical problem in the conventional techniques that cryptographic operation algorithm firmware cannot be measured and consequently the credibility of cryptographic operations is low.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of another cryptographic operation processing method according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, as an example embodiment, before the measuring, by the cryptographic operation chip, cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using a cryptographic operation measurement root, the method further includes:

step S302. The cryptographic operation chip measures the cryptographic operation measurement root to obtain a third measurement result; and

step S304. The cryptographic operation chip, when the third measurement result is consistent with a predetermined reference value, determines that a measurement entity configured to execute the measurement of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is intact or complete.

In this example embodiment, the cryptographic operation measurement root may be stored in the cryptographic operation chip, the cryptographic operation measurement root may be a functional module used for measuring the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip firmware, and the measurement root needs to be implemented by a measurement entity.

As an example embodiment, by measuring the cryptographic operation measurement root, the integrity of the measurement entity configured to measure the cryptographic operation may be determined, so as to ensure that the process of measurement for trust on the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip is trusted.

As an example embodiment, when the cryptographic operation chip measures the cryptographic operation measurement root, the third measurement result is obtained. The third measurement result may be the hash value or may be other attribute information used for determining the measurement entity configured to measure the cryptographic operation. The third measurement result is used for reflecting an attribute of the measurement entity configured to measure the cryptographic operation, and after the third measurement result passes the credibility verification, it may be considered that the measurement entity configured to measure the cryptographic operation is trusted.

As an example embodiment, when the credibility verification is performed on the third measurement result, the entity performing the verification operation may be the cryptographic operation chip, the security chip, or a chip having a cryptographic operation function module and a security module. In this example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip is used as the execution entity.

As an example embodiment, when the third measurement result is consistent with the predetermined reference value, the cryptographic operation chip determines that a measurement entity configured to execute the measurement of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is intact. The predetermined reference value is an attribute value of the measurement entity measured when it is determined that the measurement entity is intact, and the attribute is the same as the attribute of the measurement entity measured by the third measurement result. The third measurement result and predetermined reference value may both have been subjected to equivalent or same processing and calculation.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart of another cryptographic operation processing method according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4, as an example embodiment, the sending, by the cryptographic operation chip, the obtained first measurement result to a security chip includes:

step S402. The cryptographic operation chip encrypts the first measurement result by using a platform cryptographic operation measurement key to obtain encrypted data; and

step S404. The cryptographic operation chip sends the encrypted data to the security chip.

In this example embodiment, when measurement for trust is performed on the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip, the measurement result of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, that is, the first measurement result, needs to be sent to the security chip for the measurement for trust.

As an example embodiment, the first measurement result needs to be transmitted from the cryptographic operation chip to the security chip. During the transmission, the first measurement result is likely to be intercepted and tampered with. To prevent tampering of the first measurement result and ensure the correctness of the measurement for trust of the security chip, the first measurement result is transmitted in an encrypted manner in this example embodiment.

As an example embodiment, during the encrypted transmission of the first measurement result, the first measurement result is first encrypted by using the platform cryptographic operation measurement key to obtain the encrypted data. The platform cryptographic operation measurement key may be stored in or outside the cryptographic operation chip or may be stored in a chip having a cryptographic operation function module and a security function module.

In this example embodiment, the execution entity that encrypts the first measurement result by using the platform cryptographic operation measurement key to obtain the encrypted data is the cryptographic operation chip. The encrypted data is the encrypted first measurement result. The encrypted data may be obtained through various encryption methods. The encrypted data may be obtained through data transformation by using a certain encryption method.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip sends the encrypted data to the security chip, and after receiving the encrypted data, the security chip decrypts the encrypted data to obtain the first measurement result, and then compares the first measurement result with the second measurement result stored in advance.

As an example embodiment, before the encrypting, by the cryptographic operation chip, the first measurement result by using a platform cryptographic operation measurement key to obtain encrypted data, the method further includes: encrypting, by the cryptographic operation chip, the cryptographic operation request by using a user platform identity public key to obtain a user cryptographic operation measurement key; and generating, by the cryptographic operation chip, the platform cryptographic operation measurement key according to the user cryptographic operation measurement key and a platform measurement root.

As an example embodiment, the first measurement result may be encrypted in various manners. In this example embodiment, the first measurement result is encrypted by using the platform cryptographic operation measurement key.

As an example embodiment, the platform cryptographic operation measurement key is generated based on the user cryptographic operation measurement key and the platform measurement root, and the execution entity of the above step may be the cryptographic operation chip.

As an example embodiment, the user cryptographic operation measurement key is obtained by decrypting the cryptographic operation request by using the user platform identity public key, and the execution entity of the above step may be the cryptographic operation chip.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of another cryptographic operation processing method according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 5, as an example embodiment, the measuring, by the cryptographic operation chip, cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using a cryptographic operation measurement root to obtain a first measurement result includes:

step S502. The cryptographic operation chip performs hash computation on a cryptographic operation algorithm (or computer-executable instructions or files representing the cryptographic operation algorithm) in the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using the cryptographic operation measurement root to obtain a hash value, and uses the hash value as the first measurement result.

In this example embodiment, when the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware in the cryptographic operation chip is measured to obtain the first measurement result, various measurement methods may be used, for example, multiple attributes of the cryptographic operation algorithm are measured. In this example embodiment, a hash value of the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip is calculated, wherein the hash value is a reference value used for proving whether the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is intact.

As an example embodiment, hash computation is performed on the cryptographic operation algorithm, and the hash computation is a calculation method for acquiring the hash value of the cryptographic operation algorithm.

As an example embodiment, before the performing, by the cryptographic operation chip, hash computation on a cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using the cryptographic operation measurement root, the method further includes: determining, by the cryptographic operation chip, the cryptographic operation algorithm according to cryptographic operation attribute information carried in the cryptographic operation request.

As an example embodiment, there is a plurality of cryptographic operation algorithms in the cryptographic operation chip, and the cryptographic operation chip calls different cryptographic operation algorithms for different cryptographic operations. To avoid the involvement of all the cryptographic operation algorithms during computation, in this example embodiment, before the performing, by the cryptographic operation chip, hash computation on a cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using the cryptographic operation measurement root, the method further includes: determining, according to the cryptographic operation request, a cryptographic operation algorithm corresponding to the cryptographic operation request. In this way, during hash computation, the computation is performed only for the cryptographic operation algorithm, thereby effectively reducing the amount of computation and increasing the computation speed.

As an example embodiment, the determining, according to the cryptographic operation request, a cryptographic operation algorithm corresponding to the cryptographic operation request includes determining the cryptographic operation algorithm according to cryptographic operation attribute information carried in the cryptographic operation request.

As an example embodiment, before the measuring, by the cryptographic operation chip, cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using a cryptographic operation measurement root, the method includes: verifying, by the cryptographic operation chip, validity of the cryptographic operation request according to a user platform identity certificate carried in the cryptographic operation request, and when the verification is successful, allowing the measurement of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip receives the cryptographic operation request, and performs measurement for trust on the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using the cryptographic operation measurement root. When the cryptographic operation request is already tampered with, any operation performed by the cryptographic operation chip, including measurement of the cryptographic operation algorithm, encryption of the first measurement result, and the cryptographic operation, is useless. Therefore, after receiving the cryptographic operation request, the cryptographic operation chip needs to verify the cryptographic operation request. Only when the cryptographic operation request is trusted, will subsequent operations performed by the cryptographic operation chip be meaningful.

The cryptographic operation request may be verified in various manners. In this example embodiment, validity of the cryptographic operation request is verified according to the user platform identity certificate carried in the cryptographic operation request. When the cryptographic operation request passes the verification, the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is allowed to be measured. When the cryptographic operation request does not pass the verification, no action is performed on the cryptographic operation request, and the result may be fed back to a control module or control chip, or may be fed back to an upper-level entity of the cryptographic operation chip in the data transmission and processing process.

For ease of understanding, as an example implementation of this example embodiment, this example embodiment further provides a measurement for trust chain building architecture based on a trusted high-speed encryption card. FIG. 6 is a schematic architectural diagram of building a measurement for trust chain based on a trusted high-speed encryption card according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 6, this implementation is described in detail below:

The building architecture is based on a trusted high-speed encryption card, and the trusted high-speed encryption card includes a TPM/TPCM module 602 and an FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604.

During specific measurement for trust, from the perspective of the measurement time point, the measurement includes static measurement (the process shown on the left side of FIG. 6) and dynamic measurement (the process shown on the right side of FIG. 6). The static measurement means that the trusted high-speed encryption card participates in the establishment of a trust chain when the system is started and does not evaluate the trust chain after the system is started and during running of the system. The dynamic measurement means that each time a measurement for trust request is received, dynamic measurement for trust is performed on the measurement target.

From the perspective of the measurement target, the measurement includes platform system measurement and cryptographic operation measurement. The platform system measurement refers to security measurement related to the platform and system when and after the device is started and is implemented by a trusted module. The cryptographic operation measurement refers to measurement related to the cryptographic operation and is jointly implemented by the TPM/TPCM module 602 and the FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604.

The trusted high-speed encryption card includes two parts: a trusted module such as the TPM/TPCM module 602 and a cryptographic operation module such as FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604. The TPM/TPCM module 602 includes a reporting root 606, a storage root 608, a hash value of cryptographic operation measurement 610, a hash value of cryptographic operation algorithm 612, a user cryptographic operation measurement key 614, a private key of platform measurement root key 616, a cryptographic operation measurement root 618, and a platform measurement root 620. The FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604 includes a dynamic measurement module 622, a cryptographic operation measurement root 624, a cryptographic operation algorithm 626, and a user cryptographic operation measurement key 628. For example, the user cryptographic operation measurement key 628 is the same as the user cryptographic operation measurement key 614, and the cryptographic operation measurement root 618 is the same as the cryptographic operation measurement root 624.

The above physical functions are described below:

The reporting root 606 is used for reporting to a remote user to prove that the integrity of the device platform and system is not damaged.

The storage root 608 is a storage root key of a trusted chip (the TPM/TPCM module 602) and is used for ensuring the security of other storage subkeys.

The dynamic measurement module 622 is a module configured to measure cryptographic operation related firmware during the cryptographic operation in the trusted high-speed encryption card.

The cryptographic operation measurement root 624 is one of sub-functions of the dynamic measurement module and is specially used for measuring the integrity of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware.

The hash value of the cryptographic operation measurement root 610 is a reference value used for proving whether the measurement entity that measures the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is intact.

The hash value of the cryptographic operation algorithm 612 is a reference value used for proving whether the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is intact.

The user cryptographic operation measurement key 614 or the user cryptographic operation measurement key 628 is used for participating in the measurement of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, to ensure the trusted loading and trusted execution of the process of dynamic measurement of the cryptographic operation.

The private key of the platform measurement root key 616 is used for participating in the trusted loading and trusted execution of the dynamic measurement module during measurement.

The cryptographic operation measurement root 618 or the cryptographic operation measurement root 626 is used for measuring the integrity of the cryptographic operation algorithm.

The platform measurement root 620 is used for measuring the integrity of the dynamic measurement module 622.

The cryptographic operation algorithm 626 is an algorithm used for encrypting and decrypting data.

An example method for building according to the example embodiments of the present disclosure is described below. FIG. 6A is a flowchart of a method for building a measurement for trust chain according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 6A, the method includes the following steps:

step S602A. establishing a static measurement for trust chain based on a security chip, wherein the static measurement for trust chain includes a static measurement for trust performed on a measurement target when a system of a device is started;

step S604A. establishing a dynamic measurement for trust chain based on a cryptographic operation chip, wherein the dynamic measurement for trust chain includes a dynamic measurement for trust performed on a measurement target when a measurement for trust request is received; and

step S606A. building a measurement for trust chain based on the established static measurement for trust chain and the established dynamic measurement for trust chain.

Based on the above steps, building of a trust chain by the trusted high-speed encryption card includes establishing a static measurement for trust chain, establishing a dynamic measurement for trust chain, and building a complete measurement for trust chain based on the establishment of the static measurement for trust chain and the establishment of the dynamic measurement for trust chain.

As shown in FIG. 6, as an example embodiment, the establishing a static measurement for trust chain based on a security chip may include: measuring the integrity of a basic input output system BIOS 630 based on the security chip, and when the obtained integrity measurement result indicates that the integrity is not damaged, actively measuring at least one piece of firmware in the device based on the BIOS; and when the integrity of one or more pieces of firmware in the device actively measured based on the BIOS is not damaged, loading the one or more pieces of firmware, and starting a system kernel of the device to complete the establishment of the static measurement for trust chain. For example, the establishment of the static measurement for trust chain based on the security chip may be as follows: TPCM/TPM module 602→BIOS (including measurement of the dynamic measurement module 622, the cryptographic operation measurement root 624, and the cryptographic operation related firmware 632 such as the cryptographic operation algorithm 626 in the FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604, and other device firmware 634)→Boot Loader 636→System kernel 638.

As an example embodiment, the establishing a dynamic measurement for trust chain based on a cryptographic operation chip may include: measuring a dynamic measurement module based on the cryptographic operation chip to obtain a measurement result, wherein the dynamic measurement module is a measurement entity configured to measure cryptographic operation firmware; and when the measurement result indicates that integrity of the dynamic measurement module is not damaged, measuring cryptographic operation firmware and data based on the dynamic measurement module, and when a result of the measurement indicates that integrity of the cryptographic operation firmware is not damaged, determining that the establishment of the dynamic measurement for trust chain is completed. For example, the establishment of the dynamic measurement for trust chain based on the cryptographic operation chip may be as follows: TPCM/TPM module 602→dynamic measurement module 622 (including measurement of the cryptographic operation measurement root 624)→cryptographic operation related firmware and data (for example, cryptographic operation algorithm 626, application, and the like). The high-speed encrypted card dynamically loads the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware 640 to encrypt data such as data 1, data 2, application (app) 1, app 2 and conduct the corresponding cryptographic computing, such as the related cryptographic computing 1, the related cryptographic computing 2, and the related cryptographic computing 3 respectively.

As an example embodiment, building a measurement for trust chain based on the established static measurement for trust chain and the established dynamic measurement for trust chain may include: first determining that interaction between the security chip and the cryptographic operation chip is trusted; and then, building an intact measurement for trust chain based on the trusted interaction between the security chip and the cryptographic operation chip as well as the static measurement for trust chain and the dynamic measurement for trust chain. It should be noted that the trusted interaction between the security chip and the cryptographic operation chip may be implemented by using some roots exchanged, for example, by using the reporting root or the storage root. As shown in FIG. 6, the TPM/TPCM module 602 sends a trusted report 642, which may include the reporting root 606, to the FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604. The FPGA high-speed cryptographic operation module 604 may send trusted storage 644, which may include trusted root keys, to the TPM/TPCM module 602 to be saved in the storage root 608.

In addition, FIG. 7 is a flowchart of another cryptographic operation processing method according to Example embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 7, this implementation further provides a method for dynamically measuring a trusted high-speed cryptographic operation, for example as follows:

At S702, a trusted software service (TSS)/trusted software base (TSB) forwards a cryptographic operation request from a user. The cryptographic operation request includes the following information: {U,AIK_Cert,M, [DM_Key]_AIK−1}, wherein U represents user information, AIK_Certrepresents the user platform identity certificate, M represents a related attribute of the cryptographic operation request from the user, for example, a cryptographic operation algorithm, a key length, and the like to be used by the cryptographic operation, and [DM_Key]_AIK−1represents information of the cryptographic operation request.

At S704, after the high-speed cryptographic operation module (that is, the cryptographic operation chip) receives the information, the dynamic measurement module therein verifies the validity of the AIK_Certcertificate of the user. If the certificate is not valid, the high-speed cryptographic operation module rejects the high-speed cryptographic operation request; otherwise, step 706 is performed.

At S706, dynamic measurement module measures the integrity of the cryptographic operation firmware such as the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is measured by using the cryptographic operation measurement root (it should be noted that in this step, it is assumed that the trusted module has ensured the integrity of the dynamic measurement module including the cryptographic operation measurement root). This step is implemented as follows:

a) The information [DM_Key]AI_K−1is decrypted by using the user platform identity public key AIK to obtain DM_Key.

b) The platform cryptographic operation measurement key CM_Key is calculated, wherein CM_Key=f(DM_Key, Root_Skey), Root_Skey being the platform measurement root which may be obtained according to user information.

c) The cryptographic operation algorithm the hash value hash₁(m) is calculated, and the information {U, M, [hash₁(m)]_{CM_Key}} is sent to the trusted module, wherein m represents a cryptographic operation algorithm, and is obtained from the high-speed cryptographic operation module according to M in step 1).

At S708, the trusted module (that is, the security chip) receives the information {U, M, [hash₁(m)]_{CM_Ke}} from the high-speed cryptographic operation module, finds preset Root_Skey and DM_Key according to U, and calculates CM_Key=f(DM_Key, Root_Skey) according to a predetermined algorithm f; and then decrypts the information [hash₁(m)]_{CM_Key}by using CM_Key to obtain hash₁(m),finds a stored value of a corresponding cryptographic operation algorithm firmware according to M, determines whether hash1(m) is equal to hash₂(m), and feeds the result back to the high-speed cryptographic operation module.

At S710, the high-speed cryptographic operation module receives the result fed back by the trusted module. The high-speed cryptographic operation module determines whether the integrity is damaged & whether the measurement is performed by valid measurement entity. If the answer is yes, step S712 is performed; otherwise step S714 is performed.

At S712, the high-speed cryptographic operation is performed.

At S714, the high-speed cryptographic operation request is rejected.

According to the example embodiments of the present disclosure, a method example embodiment of another cryptographic operation processing method is further provided. FIG. 8 is a flowchart of a cryptographic operation processing method according to Example embodiment 2 of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 8, the method includes the following steps:

Step S802. A security chip receives a first measurement result sent by a cryptographic operation chip, wherein the first measurement result is a measurement result obtained through measuring cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by the cryptographic operation chip using a cryptographic operation measurement root.

As an example embodiment, the security chip may be a security chip configured to perform measurement for trust or may be a security function module configured to perform measurement for trust in a chip. The cryptographic operation chip may be a chip configured to perform cryptographic operations or may be a cryptographic operation function module such as a cryptographic operation algorithm firmware configured to perform cryptographic operations in a chip.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation chip may be a high-speed cryptographic operation chip.

Step S804. The security chip acquires a second measurement result stored in advance.

As an example embodiment, the security chip stores the second measurement result in advance. The second measurement result is obtained through measurement after it is determined that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted. It should be noted that the first measurement result and the second measurement result measure the same attribute quantity of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware.

As an example embodiment, the second measurement result may be obtained through measurement when it is determined that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is trusted, and through particular processing and operation. It should be noted that the same processing and operation method are adopted for the first measurement result and the second measurement result.

Step S806. The security chip compares the first measurement result with the second measurement result to obtain a comparison result indicating whether the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result, and sends the comparison result to the cryptographic operation chip, so that the cryptographic operation chip performs a cryptographic operation when the comparison result indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result.

The comparison result received by the cryptographic operation chip indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result, indicating that the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware in the cryptographic operation chip is trusted.

When the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip is trusted, the cryptographic operation is executed, thereby ensuring that the cryptographic operation is trusted. By performing measurement for trust on the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip, it is ensured that the cryptographic operation is trusted.

In the way, the algorithm firmware performing cryptographic operations is measured, cryptographic operations are made more trusted, thereby effectively improving the credibility of cryptographic operations and solving the technical problem in the conventional techniques that cryptographic operation algorithm firmware cannot be measured and consequently the credibility of cryptographic operations is low.

As an example embodiment, the receiving, by a security chip, a first measurement result sent by a cryptographic operation chip includes: receiving, by the security chip, encrypted data sent by the cryptographic operation chip and obtained through encrypting the first measurement result by using a platform cryptographic operation measurement key; generating, by the security chip, the platform cryptographic operation measurement key by using a platform measurement root and a user cryptographic operation measurement key that are preset; and decrypting, by the security chip, the encrypted data by using the generated platform cryptographic operation measurement key to obtain the first measurement result.

As an example embodiment, when measurement for trust is performed on the cryptographic operation algorithm in the cryptographic operation chip, the measurement result of the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware, that is, the first measurement result, needs to be sent to the security chip for the measurement for trust.

As an example embodiment, the execution entity that encrypts the first measurement result by using the platform cryptographic operation measurement key to obtain the encrypted data is the cryptographic operation chip. The encrypted data is the encrypted first measurement result. The encrypted data may be obtained through various encryption methods. The encrypted data may be obtained through data transformation by using a certain encryption method.

As an example embodiment, the cryptographic operation algorithm firmware is measured by using the cryptographic operation measurement root, and the cryptographic operation measurement root may be a measurement module configured to measure a program for executing the cryptographic operation algorithm, and is used for measuring the integrity of the program for executing the cryptographic operation algorithm.

As an example embodiment, the measurement module may reside in the cryptographic operation chip, or a functional module having a measurement function other than the cryptographic operation chip. The cryptographic operation chip may be a cryptographic operation module in a chip, and accordingly the measurement module is a functional module configured to measure the cryptographic operation module in the chip.

Step S906. The security chip acquires a second measurement result stored in advance, compares whether the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result to obtain a comparison result, and sends the comparison result to the cryptographic operation chip.

Step S908. The cryptographic operation chip performs a cryptographic operation when the comparison result indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result.

In the example embodiments of the present disclosure, a cryptographic operation chip receives a cryptographic operation request; the cryptographic operation chip measures cryptographic operation algorithm firmware by using a cryptographic operation measurement root to obtain a first measurement result and sends the obtained first measurement result to a security chip; the cryptographic operation chip receives a comparison result fed back by the security chip, wherein the comparison result is a result determined by the security chip and indicating whether the first measurement result is the same as a second measurement result stored in advance; and the cryptographic operation chip performs a cryptographic operation when the comparison result indicates that the first measurement result is the same as the second measurement result. In this way, the algorithm firmware performing cryptographic operations is measured, cryptographic operations are made more trusted, thereby effectively improving the credibility of cryptographic operations and solving the technical problem in the conventional techniques that cryptographic operation algorithm firmware cannot be measured and consequently the credibility of cryptographic operations is low.
