4. Overview Inside Loader Authentication Implementation Example Implementation Scenerios Conclusions

5. Locking Down App Execution Trusted Model Application execution control via Trusted Model OEM option to assign trust levels to processes Protections Prevents unauthorized modules from being loaded Restricts access to certain system APIs Prevent registry WRITE access to certain root and sub-keys: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm, Drivers, Hardware, Init, Services, SYSTEM, WDMDrivers Prevents WRITE access to files with SYSTEM attribute READ access granted, by default. Can be changed via [HKLM\System\ObjectStore]\“AllowSystemAccess”

6. Locking Down App Execution When do I implement the Trusted Model? 1-tier (all code runs as Trusted) Prevent unknown code from executing on device Trust all code running on device (to same extent) 2-tier (code can run as Trusted or Untrusted) End users can run any code on device Protect from malicious code, such as worms, viruses, trojan attacks, etc. Restrict capabilities of certain processes

8. Locking Down App Execution Trusted Model Implement Trusted Environment with two functions OEMCertifyModuleInit Loader notifies OAL (OEM Adaptation Layer) code when launching new module OEMCertifyModule Loader passes module to OAL code for verification Returns one of three trust levels: OEM_CERTIFY_TRUST,OEM_CERTIFY_RUN,OEM_CERTIFY_FALSE Samples available loadauth.lib – Sample implementation of OEMCertifyModule and OEMCertifyModuleInit signfile.exe – Desktop application that signs CE binaries

9. OEM Certification FunctionDescriptionReturn value OEMCertifyModuleInitEnables the OS loader to notify the OEM that a new module is being loaded. Allows the OEM to decide whether to verify the module for safety. TRUE or FALSE OEMCertifyModuleAllows the OS loader to pass the module code (for example, DLL, EXE, and OCX) to the OEM for verification that it is safe to run on the system. OEM_CERTIFY_TRUST OEM_CERTIFY_RUN OEM_CERTIFY_FALSE

15. Implementation Scenarios OEM is free to choose trust level Digital Certificates represent highest trust level Digital Certificates require extra footprint OEM can implement dynamic trust Allows for the device to change personality OEM can implement Name/Checksum

16. Conclusions Windows CE 5.0 Provides a robust Security Architecture Loader Certification provides a mechanism to Create a Trusted Environment Dynamically define the devices personality Follow Best Practices at multiple levels for best defense “Trusted Security is best achieved by having a thorough understanding of the Windows CE 5.0’s Security Architecture and Trust Model!”
