Abstract

A system for establishing and maintaining a chain of trust can include a root of trust (RoT) executing a root trusted server that pushes authenticated code and data into memory of a given node in a plurality of nodes. The RoT can also record a memory address range of a static portion of the authenticated code and a corresponding static data in the given node and cause the given node to execute the authenticated code in response to the pushing to establish a trusted relationship between the trusted server of the RoT and the given node. The root trusted server also monitors the given node to ensure that the given node executes trusted operations. The authenticated code in the memory of the given node can include a trusted server that pushes authenticated code into memory of another node in the plurality of nodes.
