Centralized Accessibility of VM for Distributed Trusted Cloud Computing

Abstract

Cloud computing platforms constructed on Trusted Computing Technology are commonly referred to as trusted cloud computing. The core component of this technology is known as Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Its specifications are given by the consortium known as Trusted Computing Group (TCG). Though TPM is an immovable module and is fixed inside any computer, yet its credentials can be shared with other devices. This paper presents the accessibility model for Virtual Machine (VM) of a distributed trust protocol which is based on TPM, through which consumer's credentials are shared to other trusted devices. These credentials essentially describe the integrity of VM.
