Abstract

In Trusted Computing, the client platform is checked for its trustworthiness using Remote Attestation. Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA) is a well-known technique of TCG based attestation. However, due to static nature of IMA, it cannot be aware of the runtime behavior of applications which leads to integrity problems. To overcome this problem several dynamic behavior-based attestation techniques have been proposed that can measure the run-time behavior of applications by capturing all system-calls produced by them. In this paper, we have proposed a system call based technique of intrusion detection for remote attestation in which macros are used for reporting. Macros are used to denote subsequences of system calls of variable length. The basic goal of this paper is to shorten the number of system calls by the concept of macros which ultimately reduces the processing time as well as network overhead.
