Trustworthy Execution on Mobile Devices

"Trustworthy Execution on Mobile Devices" is a technical book that explores the complex landscape of mobile devices and the various stakeholders within this ecosystem. It examines why the widely used hardware security mechanisms on mobile platforms are not accessible to application developers and end users. The book analyzes existing proposals for utilizing these security mechanisms and demonstrates how they can enhance the security features for applications and users without compromising the current benefits for OEMs and network operators. Additionally, it provides recommendations for future research directions that could lead to practical and actionable outcomes. The authors, James Newsome, Jonathan M. McCune, and Amit Vasudevan, leverage their expertise in technology and IT to provide a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in mobile security.
